Abstract:
Focuses on the issues associated with Internet banking service quality. Customer anecdotes of critical
incidents in Internet banking were contentanalyzed. Identified a total of 17 dimensions of Internet banking
service quality, which can be classified into three broad categories customer service quality, banking
service product quality, and online systems quality. The derived dimensions include: for customer service
quality, ten dimensions such as reliability, responsiveness, competence, courtesy, credibility, access,
communication, understanding the customer, collaboration, and continuous improvement; for online systems
quality, six dimensions such as content, accuracy, ease of use, timeliness, aesthetics, and security; and for
banking service product quality, one dimension of product variety/diverse features. Also revealed that, in
terms of frequency of references to the 17 dimensions, no substantial differences exist between Internet
only banks and traditional banks offering Internet banking service. The most frequently mentioned
dimensions, as the main sources of satisfaction or dissatisfaction, were reliability, responsiveness, access,
and accuracy. Some suggestions and recommendations were provided to improve the Internet banking
service quality and, in turn, customer satisfaction.
