Thank you all for being a part of the Niyo family and for joining us for important conversations right here on Niyo Community. We hope to keep answering your questions, receiving your feedback, and hearing your stories in a smarter, simpler and safer 2021.
You guys have done a great job and offered a wonderful product, but of late the customer support service has deteriorated significantly, as is evident from the numerous posts on this forum.
Initially Niyo offered superb services, and if this lacuna can be tackled effectively, then the brand can regain its ever so slightly dwindling trust.
Just a minor feedback, but overall I stand by this amazing product and the niyo brand!
Keep up the good work. Cheers!
I have been a fan of your Niyo Global card uptil now and app is very convenient. Highly recommended to all foreign travellers and you have got a good community here. Appreciated good work Niyo Team.
Hey Justin! Your feedback means the world to us. We constantly strive to serve you better and we will ensure that we are meeting the set expectations from our customers towards meeting the goals. LK
Hey Himanshu! Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words. We’re happy to hear we hit the mark for you! We’ll strive to continue the same excellence. LK
It would have been great if the customer care experience is flawless. If you go through the community more than 50% complaints are regarding poor customer care service.
Another important issue is with the serious bugs & glitches with App. It’s constantly heading up one by one.
Wish these two things are rectified at the earliest. All the best for 2021
Niyo management should greatly focus on the minimal requirements of a client to complete his/her KYC to have complete control over the account.
Niyo should only allow creating new account when the client is residing at the serviceable locations or else its totally useless after doing transactions worth 1lac .
Hopefully, higher authorities in niyo understand this urgent concern of their loyal customers.
Hey @Ranadeep_Naskar, welcome to the Niyo community. Thank you so much for your valuable feedback. We will certainly forward it to the team for further implication in future. SR
Hey @animesh.mudalgi, welcome back to the Niyo community! As of now we just provide you the DCB Remit platform from where you can transfer funds from any Indian bank account to a foreign bank account. Your feedback is duly noted and we will certailny keep you informed as and when we have the feature in our app as well. SR
Hi Alan, thanks for your patience with us; second half has been challenging with TCS introduction on foreign spends and working out the service model with our partner banks. We are confident about sorting these out soon and getting back to our usual best in class service mode. Regards
Hi Justin, Thanks for your message and we have taken note on our service levels. Last few months have been challenging as expected with us being first movers into such a product. However, we are committed to maintain world class service on all our products and hope to make it happen as soon as possible. Thanks a lot for taking time out and writing to us. Regards
