Who Are Mystery Passengers?

Mystery Passengers are covert individuals who use public and private
transport services to assess the passenger experience first-hand. They
provide invaluable feedback on aspects such as cleanliness, timeliness,
staff professionalism, and overall service quality. 

Our Mystery Passengers help ensure that transport providers meet regulatory
standards and excel in customer service, enhancing passenger
satisfaction and safety.

Some of our Mystery Passengers have their own Covert Video Cameras so can record the interactions to allow businesses to see and hear the experience themselves! 

Our Video Mystery Passengers are able to travel the country completing various different mystery shops for Mystery Shoppers Ltd.

What Is Transport Mystery Shopping?

Our specialised Transport Mystery Shopping programmes are designed to gauge the quality of your transportation services. By working closely with your team, we pinpoint areas needing improvement and celebrate your successes, all while keeping passenger satisfaction at the forefront.

Our goal is to support you in crafting a seamless travel experience that
passengers are eager to recommend.

Our bespoke Transport programmes at Mystery Shoppers Ltd enable you to drive the performance of your passenger transport or manage the quality of stocks and assets.

 

How Does it Work?

So, how exactly does it work? 

Mystery Passengers are assigned to travel via your services, whether it’s buses, trains, taxis, or trams. They observe and evaluate various elements of their journey, from ticket purchasing to the condition of the vehicles and the conduct of the staff. This real-time feedback is then analysed to provide actionable insights, helping you navigate the challenges of the transportation industry. Mystery Passengers could assess an online enquiry, social media complaint, booking tickets through a third-party or simply carrying out a customer journey.

They will then covertly conduct transport market research by collecting real-time data from their experience and document this on our mystery shopper mobile app.

“MSL’s support was critical to the successful introduction of our new Service Quality Regime. The experience and understanding of the requirements needed to establish such a regime were invaluable, and the flexibility the team brought to our introduction enabled us to meet our commitments from the very beginning, supporting until we had reached a level of maturity where we could safely continue without further support.”
