(26 July 2010 – Australia) East & Partners has just released its latest Business Banking Customer Satisfaction Monitor (BBCSM) revealing that growing dissatisfaction, amongst business customers, regarding the quality of advice they receive from their business bank, is not a consistent indicator of churn in the current environment.Since January 2009, businesses with an annual turnover of $25-$150 million
have gradually become more dissatisfied with the quality of advice they are
receiving from their business bank.
Despite this, the number of businesses in this segment, who intend to switch all
or part of their business in the next three to six months, has almost halved.
Interestingly, enterprises from the higher turnover segment ($150-$500 million)
do not feel the same with these businesses overall actually becoming more
satisfied with the quality of advice they receive from their business bank since
November 2007.
