A ready-made customer satisfaction survey template

Customer Survey Frequently you need to send out a customer satisfaction survey to your customers to find out how well you are doing.

Rather than having to reinvent the wheel Dave Appleby has created this ready-made list of questions that you can use to survey your customer base.
It could be printed out, or it could be sent by email.

If you find this survey useful please let us know and we may be able to make up a ready populated Excel version.

HiDave,
Wondered if you could help guide me to set up an agent planner for Peterborough City Council call centre that has 28 Agents, some work flexi time and some part time. What type of calculations should I use apart from call time plus write up time X call volumes? Any advise would be much appreciated.
Thanks Barbara

Hi Dave,
Wonder if you could help me with a similar questionnaire to assess client VOC for debt recovery on financial products like credit cards,loans etc.This survey form would be sent to the client to receive feedback on services and understand further expectations.

I would also mention (as this is a call centre forum) that automated telephone surveys can also be used for capturing real-time customer satisfaction feedback such as this. However, you would be wise to trim the length of the survey to make it more acceptable to customers, so a service that can cycle questions automatically, would ensure you achieve the feedback capture across multiple callers.
