Customer Reviews – Get on your soapbox…

Customer Reviews - Win a Set of Recycled Glasses

Speakers corner has just launched here at ECOutlet. Yes this is your chance to get on your soapbox and tell us what you think of our products by leaving us a Customer Review!

To help get things rolling with our latest feature, we’ve decided to add a little incentive so at the end of this month we’re going to reward the Top 15 reviews with a set of recycled glasses worth £14 each.

Though we do appreciate positive feedback, reviews don’t need to be glowingly positive to impress.  Constructive criticism will also be rewarded as will reviews which make us chuckle – in fact anything which helps to inform other customers will be in the running to win one of the prizes.

At the end of the month, we’ll select the Top 15 reviews which we think are the most helpful to our customers and the winners will each receive a set of glasses.

The glasses which are made using recycled Coca Cola bottles will make a lovely addition to any kitchen.  They are great everyday drinking glasses and also double up as slinky Ice Cream Sundae glasses.

If you fancy joining in and entering the competition, there are two ways to leave a customer review:

  1. Log in or register with us on the customer sign-up page.  Go to the product you would like to leave a review for, click the Customer Review tab and leave us your thoughts.   You will then be automatically entered into the prize draw.
  2. Guests can also leave a review.  Simply go to the product page and click the Customer Reviews tab to leave the review.
    If you leave a review this way and want to be considered for the prize draw, you will need to send us an email at comps@ecoutlet.co.uk and in the body of the email please confirm the name of review headline you left on the website.

The Customer Review competition closes on February 28th. Winners will be selected and notified by email on March 1st and all the winners names will also be announced here on the comments section of this blog entry.

Go on… help us to make ECOutlet a better place for everyone by giving us your feedback!
