Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about this service.
How long does it take to recover from a zero rating?
The remediation work typically takes 2-6 weeks depending on the severity of the issues. After that, you can request a rescore visit. The total timeline from zero to a new rating is usually 6-12 weeks.
Can I still trade with a zero rating?
A zero rating does not automatically mean closure. You can continue trading unless you have received a specific closure order. However, the reputational damage means recovery should be urgent.
Will delivery platforms delist me?
Some delivery platforms have minimum hygiene rating requirements. A zero rating may result in temporary delisting until your rating improves. This makes fast recovery even more important.
