“To win 1st place in four categories, including the Best Contact Centre for Calls & Emails – particularly when competing against some of the UK’s most recognised brands – has been a cause of great pride for us. Being part of the Top 50 has inspired and motivated every member of staff to demonstrate their personal commitment to customer service. We believed that we should be the best contact centre in the Top 50 and we have worked tirelessly to achieve this. We’ve participated for the last four years, achieving a top five finish each year.” Dignity Caring Funeral Services
