Instructions:

Please fill out each question as completely as possible by marking your answers in the box for each question.

The scale represents a spectrum: 1 signifies that you are not at all satisfied with a service, and 5 means you are very satisfied. If you are not familiar enough with a particular service to make an evaluation, please circle 7 for "cannot evaluate" this service. If you have no knowledge of the service in question, please circle 8 for "never heard of service" rather than not answering the question.
