New survey from “confirmit” focusing on service & brand

Hi,

Not sure if anyone else received this survey but it was the most detailed I’ve received in recent years and seems to focus on questions related to brand damage and service deterioration.

Questions along the lines of “why has your travel reduced” with answer options like bad press, negative view from comments, service deterioration, poor connections experience etc. (obviously I’m paraphrasing here but that was the general tone).

I wonder if we’re approaching the bottom of the curve and if the cuts are now affecting yields?

Based on my own travel pattern they’ve lost a lot of business this year through cost cutting / customer service resolution type issues.

Anyone else get similar?

Nothing in my Golden In-box

Perhaps they might send me one after our JER-LGW/LHR-DUB on Wednesday ... with subsequent onward sectors on AA to OGG, but on a BA PNR. That might give them a clue!

Received it.

Not a BAEC member, a QFF member who recently flew in F (within the last week).

Has anyone seen a similar style of question in previous surveys or it is possible that the penny is finally dropping at Waterside?

I got it too (GGL). Clearly someone at Waterside has realised they are losing business and are doing some real damage to their most loyal customer base.

I invested a fair amount of time giving detailed answers to some of their questions (something I rarely bother to do with such surveys).

I also took the opportunity to provide detailed, full and frank feedback.

I suspect this is a GGL specific survey, there are references to benefits only given to GGLs and many relating to recognition.

Well I received a survey from conformit yesterday which asked about my impressions/attitude to my recent flight from check-in through lounge offering, on-board and arrival.

I am not GGL nor BAEC. It may be a different survey administered by the same company but it did ask a lot of questions about what I had heard/read compared to what I experienced.
