Congratulations to all the winners, including Belvoir, who took home the gold medal for the DPS-sponsored Franchise category.

All about service

We’re always striving to improve our service so every month we call some of our customers back and ask them how we’re doing.

We ask them to rate how helpful and polite their advisor was and how fully we resolved their query.

From March to May we have received some really positive feedback from you, with an increased average score of 9.5 out of 10 for helpfulness.
