An extended version of the compound Poisson distribution is obtained by compounding the Poisson distribution with the generalized Lindley distribution. Estimation of the parameters is discussed using the method of moments and maximum likelihood estimators. Examples are given of the fitting of this distribution to data, and the fit is compared with that obtained using other distributions.
