Posted: Wednesday, April 16th, 2025
The British Institute of Kitchen, Bedroom & Bathroom Installation (BiKBBI) has welcomed new legislation introduced to combat fake reviews. BiKBBI has expressed its strong support for this legislative move, highlighting its importance in safeguarding consumer interests and ensuring the integrity of online marketplaces. According to BiKBBI, the issue of fake reviews has been a growing concern for both consumers and businesses alike. In an age where online reviews can significantly influence purchasing decisions, the presence of fraudulent and misleading reviews undermines consumer trust and can lead to unfair competition. For consumers, the impact of fake reviews can be considerable. Individuals rely heavily on reviews to make informed decisions, whether they are purchasing a product, hiring a service, or choosing a dining location. Damian Walters, CEO, BiKBBI, stated: "The new legislation is a crucial step towards restoring trust in online reviews. Our members have long been advocating for more stringent controls to ensure that reviews accurately reflect customer experiences. We believe these measures will level the playing field and support the growth of honest businesses."
