I talk to clients a lot because I’m an account manager at a bank. After one call, a company director said there was “a spark” between us and started asking me out.
I’m not interested at all, and his wife even works as an accountant in his company. I’m trying to say no politely and avoid any problems at work.
What’s the best way to handle and end this situation?
Thanks

  • Tell his wife! That's the best way to shut him up!

  • From experience, I would advise that you must keep everything totally professional; State your professional boundaries; Though illegal record all the... conversations; Don't bow to pressures of him moving the account to another bank;NOO NOO double speak, No ambiguity, No personal talk; Remember some institutions value profits and clients more than staff -- check very quietly how your employer handles such issues etc etc etc. If the client persists, let your immediate supervisor and HR through official channels, and request for the particular account to be transferred to another person. Companies with good system.  more

  • Focus with your work, don't entertain his Spark things and if want to take you out, tell him that you will go with your partner and he must bring his... wife more

  • If you report it, HR will manage you out and tell other companies. I would play it off, talk about your fiancé, and remain professional.

    Advise your manager and HR that you have no interest in dating any clients of the bank especially this one and ask how they would handle the... situation. In the meantime. When it happens again thank whomever for the interest but no it is against policy and say no more. If it continues walk away or hand the client off to someone else.  more
