We are currently integrating a web chat functionality on a utilities website, where customers can query their bill, or changing plans etc. with their electricity bills. (this will be available to all customers whether they are logged in or not).
The web chat will sit top right on all paged, and when clicked, will initiate a web chat sessions. In the event of a bottleneck of chats starting, we need to design a pre-screen before the chat initiates with an agent. I cannot find any best practice information our there, so my thought was to provide the following while the user waits:
Would this be considered an overshare of information to the customer? or is the visibility and transparency appreciated and considered good Ux? Any hats thrown into the ring on this one are much appreciated! A brief mockup is something I put together below as a first pass:
Once the user is speaking to an agent, consider offering him something for his trouble, maybe a discount, anything to make him feel that the issue is acknowledged and something is being done about it.

There are three main options for adding chat to your website: Chatbots, AI Chatbots, and Live Chat. Each of these has its advantages and shortcomings so choose what works best for you and your practice.
Outsourcing marketing tasks like dental blogging and live chat can be extremely valuable. AI and chatbots can get you part of the way there, but when you are ready to truly scale and maximize your impact with online chat, look to the dental marketing pros to get the job done right.
When you are determining what type of chatbot to use for your dental website, consider this: chatbots are restricted by pre-determined responses to specific questions. They can only answer what information they have been programmed to respond to. While this is a cost-effective solution, they are highly restrictive and can cause some user frustration.
It depends on the chat solution you choose. Chatbots can tackle frequently asked questions like hours, practice location, and appointment availability. If they need to, they can guide patients to more information should they need it. A shocking 86% of patients would rather talk to a chatbot than fill out online forms.
I would like to set up live chat on my website. Live Chat is the only HubSpot product available to users on my website.
I have tried reading your online guidance but couldn't make sense of it, so I am asking here in the hope that your answer might help other users with a similar problem.
First, I need to update my website cookie policy.
1. The desired behaviour I want is for the user to accept my website cookie policy, and not have to accept a separate cookie policy within the HubSpot Live Chat. What settings do i need to achieve that?
2. Which cookies do I need to add to my website cookie policy? My reading of -cookies-does-hubspot-set-in-a-visitor-s-browser is that the only Cookie needed for Live Chat to work is messagesUtk. Is that correct? Or do I need all of the cookies on that list?
3. Your guidance mentions that this is a necessary cookie and does not require consent. Does that mean I don't have to ask the user for consent to track the cookie in my cookie policy, and the cookie will automatically be tracked. If so, what happens if the user rejects my cookie policy?
@AWright4 This is a great question for the community.
Thanks for tagging me @TiphaineCuisset!
My recommendation would be to consolidate the consent to communicate text into one opt-in to avoid having to opt in to two separate sets of cookies. As far as the other sets of cookies and policies go, I would recommend speaking with a compliance expert. Unfortanately that skillset is not in my wheelhouse.
Reflecting on these pro- and anti-chatchaostormfall views, I think we can see some emerging practices for certain practitioners and situations. It can work as a quick poll, as a discussion prompt, and as a way to shake up or invigorate a quiet group. Doing so well means avoiding the problems pointed out above.
