It is with great pride that we receive this award and we look forward to serving our customers with excellence further.”
The CICM hosts the Awards annually, engaging trained researchers to conduct mystery shopping and calling exercises with nominated organisations for an unfiltered and first-hand customer service experience assessment with each respective brand. Amongst the areas considered are key customer service attributes, including product quality, service speed, after-sale service, customer friendliness, query management, proximity to customers and frequency of customer engagements. On the analysis of findings, an independent, diverse and complementary team of adjudicators from various sectors and professions gather to validate the robustness, accuracy, fairness and credibility of the customer satisfaction survey prior to announcing award recipients.

This comprises investment in innovative solutions infrastructure and digital transformation, coupled with extensive staff training, to help ensure that the desired experience of customers is enjoyable, convenient and rewarding.

To do this, we know we need to heed and even anticipate customer wants and needs and then evolve to ensure we not only deliver, but deliver quality customer service. This is a great mark of assurance that we are on the right path for our customers, and we know the journey is far from over; and so, we commit to continuing to do better and make dreams possible for our customers and stakeholder. It Can Be, and it will be!” concluded Motshegare.
