Banking complaints are being handled faster, but the experience still splits customers sharply by channel. Fraud related complaints fell 12% as CX improved, yet the average resolution time for banking complaints is still 15 days. With 63% of social media complaints solved in under 2 hours and only 23% of banks achieving an NPS above 50, these statistics raise a simple question worth unpacking: what separates fast resolution from consistently great service.
