Junction Achieves Record Customer Satisfaction Levels

16th March 2011

United Kingdom - Insurance providers must focus on more than price

Junction, the UK's fastest growing insurance affinity provider, today confirmed that it has reached an all-time high for customer satisfaction across its partner brands.

Part of the BGL Group, Junction enables a wide range of high street names and banking brands to offer motor and home insurance products to their customers.

In a recent survey of 2,500 customers across these brands, the number of customers saying that they were 'extremely satisfied' or 'very satisfied' reached a total of 73 per cent.

The research was conducted by an external agency, which advised that the average insurance industry score is around 67 per cent.

Matthew Gledhill Matthew Gledhill, Commercial, E-Commerce and Marketing Director for Junction said:

"In today's highly competitive marketplace, the focus should no longer be just on customer acquisition. Junction has a duty to its partner brands to ensure that their customers get the best possible experience when buying, amending, renewing and claiming on their insurance cover. We measured satisfaction across all customers, all brands and all purchasing channels - telephone, online and via aggregators. We're pleased with the results, but have set even higher targets for the future.

"Motor and home insurance are sometimes described as 'grudge' purchases - we know that customers don't see them as enjoyable products to buy. However, a fast, easy process and providing the right information at the right time can inspire customers both to make recommendations to others and remain more faithful to their provider. There is a strong perception in the industry that price is the only consideration, but any provider focusing on price to the detriment of service and overall customer experience will slowly see their market share decline."
