Abstract

Consumer complaints often represent the last chance that an organisation has to redress any perceived dissatisfaction that its customers may experience and retain those customers as regular purchasers. It is essential to the organisation’s survival to understand the process that these individuals go through in determining their relative satisfaction or dissatisfaction. This study examines the extent to which emotions influence consumers' behavioural responses to a dissatisfying service encounter. Results from 199 respondents answering an Internet survey are presented and managerial implications stemming from the results are discussed.
