Customer Survey Results 2023

To us, customer success is...

  • Being able to illustrate how different products and services can contribute to the success and satisfaction of customers, in various aspects of their lives or businesses.

  • Anticipating customer challenges whilst proactively providing solutions, and creating a relationship-focussed customer success strategy, ensuring every effort is made to keep our customers smiling.    

  • The customer success stories that have played a crucial role in helping us to build the trust and credibility we have today.

  • Having customers who take the time to provide their honest opinions (they really do matter!)

We genuinely want to know what our customers think about our products and what their thoughts are on the services we provide. That's why, every year we ask our customers to give us their feedback in the form of a customer survey. 

We appreciate the time taken to complete the survey, including all the feedback we have received. Any areas where it has been suggested we could improve are already being reviewed, so once again, thank you for your honesty!    

As a thanks for completing our annual customer survey, we offer a prize draw.

Congratulations to this years winners!

National Flex worked every time with us in finding right spec film according to our projects. Dealt with the complaints head on and credited instantly without fuss. Really happy with pricing and customer care service provided. Special thanks to Joshua Pratt .

A supplier we can count-on

First class supplier

Joanne who is our point of contact at National Flexible has been a total professional since she started looking after our account. Nothing is too much bother for her and would have to say that she is a credit to your company.

Samantha has been very helpful with data and responsive to all queries .

Good quality customer service along with a good service level. NO concerns so far

good nice team to work with 

Generally very good service and quality

I'm very happy with the performance of National Flexibles across all areas. Suzy is a joy to work with and always happy to help us with any queries we have whether that be a new product or an urgent delivery. There are very little NCR's but when there are, they are ironed out quickly and efficiently.

Overall I find the service excellent (I wish all my suppliers could perform as well), my only slight criticism is we sometimes find ourselves with aged stock that occasionally we can't take.  But, that's a minor challenge.  Our customer contact (Sam Wood) is brilliant in dealing with our account, she gives me confidence in being able to rely on a good customer service from National Flexible.

Really helpful and friendly staff who are always happy to help

Wonderful

Always appreciate the service from NF, good service and enjoyed the courses. Especially thankful to Jo Church who's our fantastic customer champion.

Really good supplier to use, communication is always good, regular stock sheets sent. overall a really good supplier towork with. 

National Flexible have been a important supplier over the last several years and were very helpful when we wanted to switch to a recyclable film. Our customer champion Alessio has been great to work with and when urgent requirements are needed he is very helpful.

Please help push our suppliers to move to recyclable films 

Great company to deal with, go over and above to help.

Fantastic!! In the short time I have been Working with yourselves I have had nothing but positive experiences. Mainly driven by Robyn and the rest of the sales team. I Couldn't be happier with the level of service you provide.

Reassuring that natflex are all about green planet.

We've had lots of ups and downs during this year but Elliot was always there to hear our feedback, provide alternatives and help us out. I believe that our relationship with him and NatFlex in general improved and i'm looking forward to even better results next year.

It would be useful if the delivery paperwork could always be sent automatically on dispatch, this would save us requesting a copy. Alessio is very efficient, he always provides regular updates on our stock status and is a pleasure to work with.

Samantha Wood is just amazing, wonderful customer service

Can't fault your service or performance.

we have had some issues in the past which seem to have been addressed, and we have had no issues with our recent service and deliveries.

Elliot is always prompt with responses and helping with any issues we may have

Providing ESG related data going forward about the suppliers National Flexibles partners with for the supply of films

National Flexible are a great supplier to work with - nothing is ever too much trouble and the team are a great group of people. The recent Tech Training Workshop we attended was brilliant - very well run and very informative!

Satisfactory to Good

Kim Hartley genuinely takes all my worries away. She is like having another member of the team and always watches out for us. 

You have recently started supplying us again and we had major issues with the film when we moved over to it but Kim and Scott did everything in their power to keep us running at our busiest time of year with an interim film until we can put the issues right with the original. Very pleased with the servive

Great team, responsive under pressure. Kim, Scott and Dave very helpful, you can keep them for a while longer.

National flexible have been fantastic partners for Gousto. You share the same values as ourselves, & always put the customer first. Kim Hartley is one of the most impressive professionals I have worked with. She is always there to support & is someone I always enjoy speaking with. 

Excellent service all 'round - will engage more for packaging audits to help improve sustainability
