Everyone at Spicers of Hythe is proud to announce we've been awarded the Feefo Platinum Trusted Service Award
As of the 23rd of February, we've been recognised by Feefo with a verified and independent seal of excellence for this fantastic achievement. Demonstrating that our gifting business consistently delivers a world-class customer experience.
What is the Platinum Trusted Service Award?
Feefo established the Trusted Service Awards in 2014 to recognise brands & businesses that use the platform to collect verified reviews and receive exceptional feedback from their customers. The awards are unique because they truly reflect a business's dedication to providing exemplary customer service by analysing feedback from real customers.
Working with over 6,000 brands, Feefo is the world's largest provider of verified reviews, helping brands understand customers by analysing verified reviews and providing insight into trends, needs and habits.
With consumer confidence at near historic lows due to rising inflation, as well as research from the Institute of Customer Service revealing that complaints rose to 17.3% in the second half of 2022, this award celebrates brands that are successfully navigating increasingly tough market conditions to deliver exceptional service. Surpassing challenges in everything from shipping difficulties to the post pandemic we are all now operating within.
How did we achieve this award from Feefo?
Feefo has presented Platinum Trusted Service Awards to businesses that have achieved Gold standard for three consecutive years, and Spicers of Hythe is one of them. To receive a Gold Trusted Service Award, businesses must have collected at least 50 reviews with a Feefo service rating of between 4.5 and 4.9 between 1st January 2022 and 31st December 2022.

Keeping our customers happy is our priority so the fact this award is based on feedback from real customers gives us confidence we are providing an exceptional level of service. The award also recognises just how hard our staff have worked under fresh challenges, with both rising inflation and the cost-of-living crisis affecting both consumers and businesses alike.
