I am ‘fortunate’ to be client of two of the leading pvt banks in India.
“Why not just one”, you may ask- good question !
“Neither of these two big brands are able to give me minimum service expected”
I am their cross-sell customer too – Xsell Victim, would be more appropriate!
Over the last few months I have shifted my home and status. But these folks find it difficult to handle a gypsy!!
I just wrote a mail to one of their group ‘securities’ company (all pretensions of their ALM securities have failed, as per the recent reports! They failed, as it was just pretension !)
I got this reply from them.

In the first place, why an automatic reply at all. At best it can be a one-liner acknowledging receipt. Or, just fix it and write back. Something a more customer-friendly company such as Amazon does. ( numbers changed to ####)
Miles to go…. for customer enchantment
