We have full transparency regarding our data and we can trace our data back to the opt in/time and date stamp. All our calls are recorded for training and monitoring purposes.

Our question set used to harvest this consumer shopping database is a warm, soft approach designed to gain the precise information required. The primary aim of the question is to discover who the consumers energy supplier is

 

The entire database is non-TPS registered.

 

We feel this database will be accurate up to a 12 month period from when each record was created.

Question Set:

Below is the question we asked UK consumers to attain the required information:

“Save Today may be able to get you onto a better deal for your energy. If you would like to know more, can you tell me who your utility provider is please?”

If the consumer provides their energy supplier name, this is a lead.

Sample Script

 

By clicking the icon below, you can listen to one of the calls we made during our UK marketing questionnaire:

If you are unable to listen to the call, please see below a transcript of the call.

“Hi! It’s (Agent Name) from SAVE TODAY and the reason for my call is to ask you just a few simple yes or no direct marketing questions, I promise to be quick. Is this ok?”

The agent then reads the opt in statement, which is read to all consumers before continuing. This is to maintain GDPR compliance and advise the consumer of their rights.

“Just to let you know that our privacy policy is available on our website, www.save2day-ph.com. Save Today relies on legitimate interests as the lawful basis of processing your data. At the end of the call you will hear a recorded message again with this information. Further, all calls are recorded for training and monitoring purposes. SAVE TODAY and its 3rd party clients including XXXX, XXX AND XXX and from industries such as telecom, insurance, utility, home improvement, warranty, charity, automotive, gaming, mail order and travel companies may contact you for up to 12 months via telephone to offer promotions, market their products or services or to update your preferences.”

If the consumer offers no rejection to the opt in statement, the telesurvey question to gain the required information is then asked:

“Save Today may be able to get you onto a better deal for your energy. If you would like to know more, can you tell me who your utility provider is please?”

The agent will then select from a drop-down box the energy provider.

Data Accuracy

Data accuracy is at the forefront of everything we do. In order to ensure our data is 100% accurate, we will undertake the following validation checks before we send any data to our clients.

 

Postal Address File (PAF) Validation. This is used to check the home address of the consumer record is correct. We will cross reference our consumer data against the Royal Mail postal address file. This is to ensure we have the correct home address or our records.
HLR Lookup (Mobile Validation) serves to cleanse our data and optimise the functioning of the data. HLR Lookup (Mobile Validation) cleans our data of dead, fake and inaccurate numbers.
Deceased Validation. This check is undertaken to validate that the prospect has not passed away since the record was created
