Re: [prpoint] Rare response from CEO of a financial institution for customer grievance!

Hi Narren,
 
Consumer activism is pretty low in India. Right from what ur friend experienced..these are very common in India. There is a very good site called www.mouthshut.com a user generated consumer activity portal..I strongly urge members to look at this site..for instance I bought a Eureka Forbes Vacuum cleaner recently and had huge problems with customer support..just posted by experience in that site..and Eureka Forbes HO responded with in a day and promised to resolve the crisis..
 
I urge more and more people to use sites like that whenever they buy a product and post their experience either good or bad..
 
Regards

Subject: [prpoint] Rare response from CEO of a financial institution for customer grievance!

Dear Friends

We were talking about the way top management responding to emails or banks customer service turning deaf ears to all our queries. Here is an good instance where a CEO of financial institution responded and solved the issue in just 2 hours.

Incident:

My colleague has a cash card of a leading company and he had booked movie tickets using it and unfortunately it booked 3-4 times and money was transferred to the bank account. He approached chennai office for refund and he did not get proper response. even after threatening them with leagl action they did not bother or come forward to help solve his problem. He used his influence and got email id of the CEO and wrote a mail to him, to his surprise the whole issue was sorted out in 2 hrs and money was transferred to his account.

I guess proper attention towards customer at this time will definately help build positive image as well as retain customer even after making him undergo bad experience.

(Moderator's Note : Please read again "He used his influence and got email id of the CEO". This is the pathetic situation for any corporate. In a private sector, the appeal mechanism is highly bad. CEOs shield themselves from the public. What would happen for a customer, who is not influential to get the email id of CEO.)

Best regards
Narren
