Deleting Feedback
There are only a handful of specific scenarios in which feedback comments should be deleted. These situations include comments containing extremely offensive language, spam comments or test comments.
Scenarios
Comments containing extremely offensive language can be edited to remove the language or can be deleted completely. Luckily we do not experience this situation often.
Comments that are considered spam comments where the customer has been repeatedly submitting the same feedback can be deleted.
The customer should be notified that their feedback has been received and they don't need to repeatedly submit the same feedback. The most common reason for this scenario is that the customer might be trying to win the prize draw associated with submitting feedback.
Comments that are test comments can be deleted.
Occasionally Customer Radar will send through test comments just to make sure the feedback links and pages are all working, you don't need to do anything here, we will make sure we delete these comments from our end.
Another test comment scenario may be where you or a member of your business is showcasing the feedback submission process to another team member. In this case, the feedback can be left or you can contact your business' Admin user to delete the feedback.
