That is an awesome story. I can’t tell you the amount of hours I have spent on the phone with all our different companies (CC, phone, cell, utilities, etc) in order to get things reduced because of their mistakes. They call you! wow. Awesome. Outstanding customer service will lift companies above the economic craziness.

Hmm…the bank calling is not such a big deal for me, since I’ve gotten those types of calls before (still, it shows excellent customer service on their part). The $25, on the other hand, is just stellar. They are working hard to get your business and it shows.

Its amazing when you think about how happy customers get when their difficulties are addressed, yet how little most companies are willing to work to make customers happy.

Thanks for sharing a feel good story.

It’s always nice to be surprised by a good customer service story with a big bank like that! I think they did themselves a service by being so proactive like that.

That’s cool and I think it’s great that you posted this. I think all too often many PF bloggers (myself included) will post more about negative experiences and not so much on the positive ones. Great job keeping the balance!

It is nice to be surprised by good customer service from anyone. I am honestly blown away by them taking the time to call me and apologize, it really goes a long way to building a good relationship and referral base.

Wow, that is pretty impressive. I used to use Ally, but only for savings and back when they were still named GMAC. I have been wanting to diversify my banking again and will probably go with them. Congrats… isn’t it nice to be surprised by your bank?
