As part of the info-educational tools made available by Banks and directed to customers, ABI has designed the Guide "Bank-Customer Communication Channels."
The Guide is designed with the intention to illustrate to citizens, including the less experienced, the different channels of communication that Banks make available to customers and that are able to give advice, listen and communicate even at a distance, highlighting how they complement the possibility of going to the branch. These are synergistic modes that involve direct contact via telephone and e-mail, or through instant messaging services, video interactions and social channels including with a virtual assistant. Central and transversal to all the channels described in the guide is the issue of security and protection of one's personal data, with the aim of keeping the consumer's attention on these aspects high at all times.
