Key also significantly Outperformed Banking Industry In Customer Loyalty and Retention
CLEVELAND, Dec. 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- KeyBank announced today that its customer satisfaction levels significantly exceed the industry average and continue to improve, even as the banking industry struggles to enhance customer sentiment. Among the findings of a third-quarter 2011 customer satisfaction survey by the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI) were the following:
- Compared to the nation's largest banks noted in the survey, Key is one of only two that improved its overall customer satisfaction score two consecutive years;
- Key significantly outperformed bank industry averages in the measures of Customer Retention (+7), Overall Quality (+6), Value (+5), and Customer Loyalty (+4); and,
- Key significantly improved its scores from 2010 for Value and Customer Satisfaction.
"These customer satisfaction scores affirm our client-focused business model, and validate our customers' belief that they receive value from Key's advice, service and products," said Bill Koehler, president, Key Community Bank. "We thank our customers for their continued confidence in us, and our employees for their contributions in delivering superior customer service every day."
Key has engaged ACSI -- a national economic indicator of customer evaluations of the quality of products and services available to household consumers in the United States -- over a number of years to survey its customers on various service-level metrics. The ACSI was developed at University of Michigan's Ross School of Business.
