The 7 key findings of the Customer Experience survey
- 2 out of 3 customers are ready to leave their bank if they find it too unreachable
- The customer area and email are the two priority contact channels that customers currently use to contact their bank advisor.
- 46% of respondents would be prepared to use Whatsapp / SMS, but in reality less than 22% do. Nevertheless, this remains a major area of development in customer experience for the banking industry and other sectors in the years to come.
- More than 53% of customers contact their advisor between 2 and 3 times a year, and even 86% admit to having little or no contact. This infrequency of contact amplifies the need for optimum satisfaction at every contact.
- The level of satisfaction with the banks' contactability is 7.7 / 10, with a globally homogeneous level whatever the contact channel , with an advantage of digital over human.
- 4 times as many telephone calls, 4 times as many emails received, but only half as many physical appointments in branch: these are the figures observed in Banque Populaire Auvergne Rhône Alpes bank branches.
- Digital and mastery of the various digital channels is key to ensuring that the experience, and in particular the first relational contact, is a success.
Every quarter, you'll receive the iQoScope by email, featuring feedback and best practices from our Marketing & Customer Experience projects.
