USAA and Credit Unions Lead Banks in Customer Experience

We recently released the 2015 Temkin Experience Ratings that ranks the customer experience of 293 companies across 20 industries based on a survey of 10,000 U.S. consumers.

USAA and credit unions tied for the top spot, each with a rating of 81%, putting them in 8th place overall out of 293 companies across 20 industries. Credit unions (which is a rating for a group of credit unions, not one company) have earned the highest ranking for banks over the past four years. USAA has been hovering around the top of the banking list since 2011, but this is the first year that it actually took the top spot.

Meanwhile, BB&T debuted on the Ratings at the bottom of the industry, with a rating of 61% and a rank of 199th overall. Citibank was not far ahead, receiving a rating of 62% and coming in 187th place overall.

Here are some highlights from the banking industry:

  • Overall, the banking industry averaged a 71% rating in the 2015 Temkin Experience Ratings and placed 5th out of 20 industries. The average rating of the banking industry stayed steady at 71% between 2014 and 2015.
