  2. Services offered by Call Centres: If a customer is having some technical difficulty, they can always call the Call Centres for assistance from the experts sitting on the other end rather than visiting the bank itself. Studies have shown that these types of services provided for the benefit of the customers will decrease the overall operational cost of the banks and the number of walk in customers for the troubleshooting issues in the bank would decrease too.
  3. Internet Banking: Services provided by internet banking have made it easier for the customers to access their data online. They can do bank transfer from any computer connected to internet.

Internet is the main source of media marketing these days, banks can also benefit from using various platforms to get some clients through internet by offering different services. Although there are certain setbacks to the internet like lack in privacy, which is the main concern of every bank. The customers need to trust that their data is safe within the bank and no other unauthorized person can access it. The bank needs to take measures to build that trust via adopting new technologies and hiring expertise to deal with the issue.
  4. Home Banking: A special software is installed on the client’s computers through which they can access their bank account which is directly being accessed to the bank’s servers.

One of the main advantage of home banking is that the customer can access their account without considering banks availability.
  5. Phone Banking: The customer is directed through a dedicated phone line through which they can approach their bank account. A password is given to the customer and a special personal code which is only known to the customer. Once they clear the security levels, they are allowed to retrieve data.
