To consistently maintain a high level of customer service, service firms must recognize that every aspect of their business has an impact on the customer. In this study, two types of data were collected; Primary Data and Secondary Data. This was necessary since it helped to add to the findings of the researcher. A simple random sampling and purposive sampling method were used. This ensured that every member of the population had an equal chance of being part of the sample. The sample size chosen was 200 bank customers. It was revealed in the survey that customers think that the banks need to improve on their quality of ATM services and a high number of the customers are willing to switch banks for the sole reason of an ATM that offers the highest service quality. The study also revealed some of the problems associated with the services provided by the ATM that the customers dislike and want to be adjusted, they are ATM cash out, the limit placed on daily withdrawal, Transaction error, slow response to dispute resolutions, Network problems, Long queues, Security issues and Card retraction.
