Don't worry, if your post doesn't violate our terms of use, it will soon appear on our website for everyone to see.

15. How is the rating calculated?

Customer satisfaction rating is a complex algorithm that helps our users to determine how good a company is at responding and resolving complaints by granting from 1 to 5 stars for each complaint and then ultimately combining them all for an overall score.

Whenever a complaint is posted, the formula considers 4 main variables and 1 additional variable:
 

1. Resolution: ultimately, it's all about resolving complaints. Whether the complaint was marked as "resolved" (and how long it took to become "resolved.") plays a key role in determining the score.
2. Speed: Let's be real. Nobody likes to wait. Therefore, waiting for a long time to get an answer is akin to standing in a never-ending queue and can anger the customer, as it feels like there's no progress. But we're not heartless monsters, therefore, we exclude Saturdays and Sundays from the formula, as everyone deserves their days off.
3. Quality: receiving more personalized responses, such as addressing a customer by name and reading what the problem is about, instead of simply giving short and generic "contact us via X" answer, is more favorable.
4. Frequency: or how often a company responds. Consistently responding to all complaints as they appear will result in a much more favorable score. 
5. Pending: complaints a company has responded to, but there's no reply from the user yet, are somewhat tricky to rate and integrate into the formula, as it's not the company's fault the user hasn't replied yet. To tackle this issue, we mark them as "pending" that our formula considers "over halfway there, but not done yet." It strongly leans towards a positive rating, but not as strong as a fully resolved complaint.
