Authentication process for an unidentified FICO caller

FICO IVR states "unidentified cardholder" or "customer did not authenticate":

  1. Bankers should follow the standard Pindrop authentication process based on the customer's fraud risk color. 

    • Consider the suggested scripting for customers who are scored as Red PinDrop: 

      • “I apologize but I am unable to locate an account with the information provided. You may easily manage your account(s) through your Online Banking or by visiting a local Regions branch with photo ID."

  2. If the phone number is not provided via the FICO IVR, but appears in RAMS, it must be authenticated and can be used as one of the authentication items.

For customers identified through the FICO IVR as an "unidentified cardholder", it may raise concern with that caller that we must obtain identifying information such as their account number or Social Security Number in order to access their profile and provide assistance. 

  • Consider the suggested scripting below to prepare customers for the authentication questions: 

    • “Hello, my name is _______ with Regions Bank. I understand there is a suspicious transaction on your account, and you would like more information. To review the transaction(s) in question and ensure your account is secure, I will need to get some additional information from you. May I please have your account number in order to review your account?” 

    • Always ask for the customer's account number first. If the customer is not able to provide their account number, you may ask for their Social Security Number. 

  • If the customer states they do not feel comfortable providing this information, refer to the scripting below: 

    • “Mr./Ms. Customer, I understand why you may be hesitant to provide this information. If you do not feel comfortable handling this over the phone, you have the option to close your card and dispute transactions through your Online Banking profile, or by visiting a local branch.”
