Find out what our Mystery Shoppers are saying!
Trained customers carry out mystery shopping exercises, the aim is to make sure our services are delivered equally by everyone and to identify training needs within the team.
How it works - Mystery Shoppers listen to recorded calls made to our Customer Services team and answer a set of questions. The questions enable feedback on the process, customer experience and overall level of service provided. Customers also had the opportunity to leave a comment after each call.

How our customers have influenced our processes
- Asking if there’s anything else we can help with: This area showed a gap in performance, with a 25% decrease from previous months. We’ll put greater focus on ensuring that every customer interaction is fully explored, offering opportunities to address any additional concerns or questions.
- By continually listening to our customers, we can focus our efforts where they matter most, ensuring we meet their needs and exceed their expectations. We are committed to making ongoing improvements and will continue using this feedback to inform our decisions.
