Can a bank/credit company close your account for making too many complaints
Comments
-
If a customer is seen to be submitting multiple complaints can a bank or credit company terminate the service?
The bank would see closing the account as a 'double win'.
First, the customer is probably loss making (because of the cost of dealing with all their complaints).
Second, the customer would probably move to a competitor, and make a loss for them instead.
(U.S. online banks in particular seem to have a clear strategy of encouraging 'time consuming' customers - i.e. those that constantly contact them and/or complain a lot - to move to their competitors.)0 -
nothing worse than a serial complainer
It’s not far from fraud imo0 -
