Abstract

This exploratory study aims at identifying the influencing factors of customer satisfaction of Automated Teller Machines (ATMs). From the literature review and experts’ suggestions, a research model has been developed which consists of six factors namely cash availability, transaction speed, long queue, perceived quality, ease of use and ease/certainty of fee payment. A newly designed questionnaire which was pre-tested on a group of customers has been used for data collection. The validated data have been analyzed using regression analysis to establish the relationship between the six independent factors and customer satisfaction. The results reveal that all the factors are found to influence the customer satisfaction and out of six, only long queue has negative effects as hypothesized. Cash availability and transaction speed are found to have a strong influence on customer satisfaction of ATMs.
