The Dealer Awards programme is designed to reward best practice and ensure all Motability customers receive exemplary customer service across the Motability Scheme’s national dealer network. The Awards are judged on how a dealer delivers the Scheme to customers, which is assessed by customer feedback and reviews of their performance. All winners of the quarterly awards are automatically entered into the national, annual awards which are announced at the beginning of the following year.

Peter Wilson, General Manager – Dealer Relations at Motability Operations, explains:

“The focus of these awards is to thank our dealer partners for providing a consistently positive customer service experience, after all, they are often the first point of contact for our customers. It’s important for us to recognise our dealer partners who go above and beyond when representing the Motability Scheme and highlight those who are setting a great example of how to do it well, like Pulman ŠKODA. Many congratulations to them on their award.”

Celebrating their Motability Dealer Award win, Elizabeth Walton from Pulman ŠKODA, said: “All of us at Pulman ŠKODA are incredibly proud to win this Motability Dealer Award. Last year we moved into our new Pulman ŠKODA showroom at Belmont Durham, along with undertaking a training programme to ensure that everyone in the sales team are qualified as Motability experts. Offering the very best service and experience to our customers. We want to thank Motability for this fantastic award. We look forward to continuing our award-winning approach to business and customer service and to welcoming many more Motability customers through our doors in 2017”
