Introduction

Business competition in the field of banking is very fast; banks compete to be the best by doing various ways to remain a healthy bank by paying attention to all financial ratios, utilizing certain businesssegments, and emphasizing on infrastructures. Having good imagein public will be a consequence of image formation. Harsono (2015) explains that image is defined as an impression obtained in accordance with one’s knowledge and experience about something. Improving service quality is expected to improve company image because image can be strengthened when customers get high service quality; and it will decrease when the service quality is low. Zeithaml et al (1996) define service quality as a comparison between consumer expectations and perceptions to the service performance they receive (perception expectations). When the service received or perceived is in accordance with expectations, the service quality is perceived as good and satisfactory. When the service received or perceived is not as expceted, the service quality is perceived as is not good and unsatisfactory
