Virgin Mobile conducted its own national survey to conclude Canadians want good customer service. The survey was implemented by Vision Critical from May 19-20, 2015 from a group of 1,504 random Angus Reid Forum adult panelists, and found out the following:
79 per cent of Canadians wanting customer service reps to be friendly and courteous
78 per cent hoping to deal with knowledgeable employees
70 per cent seeking staff who can problem solve
70 per cent of Canadians say they hate it when they can’t speak to an actual person
69 per cent of Canadians say they hate it when there are unresolved issues
68 per cent of Canadians say they hate it when there are rude responses
97 per cent of those surveyed say they’re more likely to stay with a brand if they’re provided with good customer service
95 per cent say they would take their business elsewhere if they aren’t getting good customer service
