Customer escalated complaints serve as a critical indicator for measuring service quality and are vital for improving service quality and resolving customer issues. A hybrid learning approach LLM-RFE-XGBoost was proposed for early warning of potential escalated complaints. Firstly
large language models (LLM) was utilized to extract semantic features from customer call text. Then these features were integrated with original structured data
after which recursive feature elimination (RFE) was applied to select the optimal feature set. Finally
XGBoost was employed for prediction using all selected features. To validate the effectiveness of the model
predictive analysis was conducted using production data from a provincial telecom operator as the research subject. Empirical results demonstrate that the proposed LLM-RFE-XGBoost hybrid approach delivers optimal predictive performance. After practical application in a provincial telecom operator
escalated complaints decreased by 6.7%
which is of great significance for improvement of the service quality and customer satisfaction.
