Greville Jones

Said the following about Newcastle Travel Centre Team:

“The team have succeeded massively on so many levels, taking on board the changing purchasing habits of our customers with a 'count me in' outlook, which has been evidenced by a significant rise in received praise correspondence from our Customers, to the point where we are now the most praised Travel Centre in our company.

The team absorb innovation and are always on the lookout for new, smarter ways of providing a great service to our customers - for every useful new program, application, device or procedure we come across, there's always a chorus of 'can we use it/have it', to the point where we now feel we are waiting for the technology to catch up with our ideals.“

Said the following about Newcastle Travel Centre Team:

“As a Retail Trainer I work with all the Travel Centres within our company and always find the staff at Newcastle to be warm, friendly and professional. I have witnessed the staff here going the extra mile to ensure the passengers are well looked after and given the correct information. Each and every one of the staff are a joy to work with and I have seen first hand how grateful the passengers are.

They often work under extreme circumstance but just embrace this and do not let it get in the way of providing excellent customer service. Recent example is they are conducting a trail with a new system update which has not been as smooth as we would have liked however the staff have remained professional and dedicated to serving our public in the only way Newcastle staff know how to.“
