Twitter Sentiment
Positive Negative Neutral
Most of conversations are from discount and voucher specialists:
@codesuk, @piggycodeuk and @sharpie9hukd
• Most tweets are focused on sharing discount voucher codes, and
goodies. Moreover, these are easily retweeted by fans who can add
to the conversations (e.g. I got 2 pepperoni pizzas at Pizza Hut with
this code!)
Positive sentiments were about customers interested in the ordering online
process. Most of the tweets expressed excitement when Pizza Hut was
delivered on time. Furthermore, the extras or goodies for late delivery also
satisfied customers
Negative Sentiment arose when the delivery service fell into the following:
• The online ordering experience was poor – wrong foods delivered,
no email confirmation, confusing menu
• Poor staff communication skills which led to misunderstanding and
confusion of customers’ orders
• Late delivery which led to cold food and frustrated hungry customers
• Limited range of delivery in some communities and rural areas –
even if the Pizza Hut is just about ten minutes by car.
KEY INSIGHTS
Negative posts outnumbered positive posts on Twitter by nearly 2 to 1. Food mistakes, issues with online
order or lack of staff’s communication skills were among the most complained.
A lack of activity on Pizza Hut UK Twitter (@PizzaHut_UK) misses opportunities to address customers’ issues
and being excluded from general conversations of customers

12. Customers enjoyed the online ordering experience
when it worked. However, common complaints
include: wrong dates/times for delivery, no confirmation
messages and difficulty in redeeming voucher codes.
Furthermore, some customers were unhappy with
unsolicited SMS spam from Pizza Hut
The staff’s language and customer service skills also
made it difficult for customers to place their orders and
added to their frustration if orders went wrong
KEY INSIGHTS
Among all topics, ‘Speed of delivery’ garnered the highest percentage of positive feedback; however,
even in this area, negative responses still outnumbered the positive by 2 to 1.
Most of ordering experiences related to online order or mobile phone ordering. Although some
customers were excited by these options and could see the benefit of them, there were still many
complaints when the process did not live up to expectations

delivered their orders on-time (usually under 40
minutes). Moreover, people expressed gratitude when
Pizza Hut gave goodies when deliveries were late.
Waiting more than 1 hour seems to be the time period
when customers’ start to get upset

portion of delivery issues.
Melted ice-cream, dried or
cold pizza and hot wine were
the most complained about.

annoyed many customers, with many
wondering why Pizza Hut did not
deliver to them, even though the
restaurant is present in their area.

PizzaHut UK FB Delivery Services – In their words
19. Some Sample Responses of PH UK on Facebook
While acknowledging the problem shows empathy, the
moderator throws back the issue to the customer by
asking him to take action, rather than being proactive on
the customer’s behalf
Typical Pizza Hut Response Engagement Strategy Commentary
The Facebook page is public; by taking the conversation
private, the users are unable to see how the problem is
ultimately resolved. Taking an issue private also
prevents the user from thanking Pizza Hut publicly
A potentially positive event ends with this post. An
opportunity to continue this conversation could have
included the moderator asking the user to post pictures
of the event
KEY INSIGHTS
Facebook users generally are pleased to get any response to issues they raise on the Facebook page.
However, by being more proactive and showing more public resolutions to issues, Pizza Hut can increase more
positive reactions from fans
Additionally, other options for the Facebook page can also be put to greater use: asking users to send photos
of their meals at Pizza Hut, quick polls, contests, etc
