Stairlift company Companion wins GOLD for customer service

COMPANIONWINS GOLD AWARD FOR CUSTOMER SERVICE

National stairlift company Companion has won the Feefo Gold Service award, an independent seal of excellence that recognises businesses for delivering exceptional experiences, as rated by real customers.

Created by Feefo, Trusted Service is awarded only to those businesses that use Feefo to collect genuine ratings and reviews. Those that meet the high standard, based on the number of reviews they have collected, and their average rating, are awarded. A badge of honour, this accreditation remains unique, as it is based purely on the interactions with verified customers. As all reviews are verified as genuine, the accreditation is a true reflection of a business' commitment to outstanding service.

Companion supplies stairlifts and bathing solutions throughout the UK, as a result of both direct advertising and also via their partnerships with nationwide mobility retailers. The company met the criteria of collecting at least 50 reviews between January 1st 2017 and December 31st 2017, with a Feefo service rating of between 4.5 and 5.0.

Companion sales and marketing director David Harrison commented: "It's a real honour to receive this award from Feefo. To be recognised for delivering exceptional experiences to all our customers is a great achievement. We've been working hard to ensure they receive the best service possible, and being able to listen, understand and respond to their needs has enabled us to improve in 2017. We're looking forward to another successful year ahead."

Speaking on this year's award, Andrew Mabbutt, CEO at Feefo, commented: ‘The Trusted Service award has always been about recognising those companies that go the extra mile. Once again, we have seen many incredible businesses using Feefo to its full potential, to provide truly memorable experiences for their customers - and rightly being awarded with our most prestigious accreditation. I look forward to the continual success of the businesses that work in partnership with Feefo throughout 2018.'

Feefo is a ratings and reviews, and customer analytics platform which provides the tools to collect genuine, purchase-verified reviews on behalf of over 4,000 businesses. Feefo ensures that all feedback is authentic, by matching it to a legitimate transaction; this is in order to increase consumer confidence, and combat the rising issue of fake reviews.
