Abstract


This research aims to analyze the role of Customer Service in improving service quality for customers at PT. Bank Nagari Mentawai Branch. In the increasingly competitive banking industry, service quality is a key factor in maintaining customer satisfaction and loyalty. Customer Service, as the frontliner, plays a crucial role in interacting directly with customers by providing information, assisting administrative processes, and handling complaints. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques through field research, including observation and interviews, as well as literature study. Primary data were obtained from Customer Service staff, the Branch Operational Supervisor, and related employees. The results show that Customer Service has a significant role in enhancing service quality through fast, friendly, communicative, and professional service, as well as effective complaint handling with empathy. However, several challenges were found, such as customers’ lack of understanding of banking products and technical system constraints. Therefore, improving human resource quality and optimizing technology are necessary to support better service delivery. It can be concluded that Customer Service plays an important role in improving service quality, which ultimately increases customer satisfaction and strengthens the bank’s image and public trust
