LL Bean tops in customer service

The NRF Foundation/American Express Survey just announced the winners of its Customers’ Choice survey, with L.L. Bean coming out on top.

The survey, conducted by BIGresearch which polled 8,167 consumers, named Bean the hand-down winner in online, as well as offline, customer service channels.

In its four-year history, web-only retailers are the leaders in customer service. This year, the other top spots were nabbed, in descending order, by Overstock.com, Zappos.com, and Amazon.com.

“Retailers this past year had the extra challenge of offering their customers great service amidst turbulent economic conditions,” commented NRF Foundation VP Kathy Mance. “Any company who secured a spot on the list this year should be commended for stellar customer service and continued level of excellence.”
