Does ‘Frequently’ mean ‘Quite often’? Example: We use this idiom frequently. We use this idiom quite often. Are they the same? Which one is used in spoken/informal English? (British English)

Yes, and in spoken/informal English you are more likely to hear "quite often" or just "often" or "a lot". "Frequently" is more formal.

I guess, the word "frequently" has stronger meaning than "quite often". Although these words can mean the same. It depends on context.
