Dimensions of Service Quality Time and timeliness : How long a customer must wait for service, and if it is completed on time. For example, is an overnight package delivered overnight? Completeness : Is everything the customer asked for provided? For example, is a mail order from a catalog company complete when delivered? Courtesy : How customers are treated by employees. For example, are catalog phone operators at Lands' End nice and are their voices pleasant? Consistency : Is the same level of service provided to each customer each time? Is your newspaper delivered on time every morning? Accessibility and convenience : How easy it is to obtain the service. For example, when you call Lands' End or L. L. Bean does the service representative answer quickly? Accuracy : Is the service performed right every time? Is your bank or credit card statement correct every month? Responsiveness : How well the company reacts to unusual situations, which can happen frequently in a service company. For example, how well a telephone operator at L.L. Bean is able to respond to a customer's questions about a catalog item not fully described in the catalog.
