Biweekly Loan Processor Reveals Results of Customer Satisfaction Survey
ORLANDO, Fla. – US Equity Advantage® (USEA) members are highly satisfied with the quality and value of the company’s AutoPayPlus early loan payoff service, according to a member satisfaction survey conducted in August 2014. Approximately 90 percent of respondents said the AutoPayPlus program met or exceeded expectations for overall quality. Additionally, 95 percent said AutoPayPlus was a good or exceptional value for the price.
The survey was conducted over a two week period to gauge member satisfaction with the service, perceived value of the service and other benchmarks. It was sent to nearly 10,000 randomly selected members and incentivized with a $5 e-gift certificate with the goal of obtaining a statistically relevant sample size of 378 completed, unique surveys.
Other key findings:
86.34% are satisfied overall with the company's member service.
89.97% expressed satisfaction with the way USEA is managing their loan payments.
In addition, three-quarters of the respondents reported contacting USEA at least once. Of those:
92.05% had their question resolved to their complete satisfaction.
