| Abstract | The rapid evolution of digital banking has transformed customer interactions with financial institutions, making service quality, trust, and security central to satisfaction. This study undertakes a comparative analysis of Federal Bank and South Indian Bank, two leading private sector banks in India, to evaluate the effectiveness of their digital banking services in meeting customer expectations. Using surveys and interviews, the research investigates key dimensions including ease of use, convenience, trust, security, grievance redressal mechanisms, and responsiveness. Findings highlight that while both banks have invested significantly in digital platforms, customer perceptions vary in terms of reliability, personalisation, and support efficiency. Federal Bank’s emphasis on innovation and inclusivity contrasts with South Indian Bank’s regional strength and service responsiveness, offering distinct competitive advantages. The study contributes academically by enriching the literature on digital banking and customer satisfaction, and practically by identifying gaps and strategies to enhance loyalty. By amplifying customer voices, the research underscores the importance of secure, user-friendly, and responsive digital services in shaping satisfaction and trust, providing actionable insights for banks, regulators, and policymakers. |
