“…Customer churn analysis is used widely in various sectors to increase the level of predictability [8] and plays an important role in the sectors that adopt a subscription-based revenue model as telecommunication, banking, and insurance [3]. The telecommunication sector witnesses high churn rates in its highly competitive market environment [9], and identifying churn risk is required for retaining existing customers and gaining a competitive advantage [10].…”

Customer churn is an important issue in increasing both the long and short-term revenues of a company. If companies identify customers’ churn behavior, they can prevent customer loss, ensure customer loyalty, and in turn gain better financial returns. The telecommunication sector is a customer-oriented sector that requires customer retention to survive in the market and, in this sector customer loss is observed at a high level. In recent years, artificial intelligence-based customer churn analysis has been widely used to predict customers’ churn behavior. In this study, a customer churn analysis was conducted with publicly shared Telco telecom data. Predictive models were built with machine learning (LR, KNN, SVM, DT, RF, ANN), ensemble learning (XGBoost, Voting), and deep learning (LSTM) methods. Besides, a 3-layered LSTM model was proposed. Accuracy, F1, precision, and recall rates were used to evaluate the models. As a result, the novel 3-layered LSTM model achieved 91% accuracy, 87% precision, 84% recall, and 89% F1 values. The proposed model is competitive with the literature.
