The financial sector reforms 1992 coupled with knowledge explosion, surging competition and customer search for better service quality has led the banks to work on the customer retention through perpetrating the switching barriers. Customer acquisition is more costlier than retaining existing ones (Anabila et al., 2012) and banks, mostly, are competing on core service offerings. Keeping in view the growing importance of switching costs as a strategic weapon to retain customers, present study aims to examine the impact of switching costs on customer loyalty in banks of North India by using Partial Least square Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM). The data collected from 738 bank customers brought to the light that the financial, relational and procedural switching costs have positive and significant effect on customer loyalty. The results further revealed that relational switching cost has greater impact followed by procedural and financial switching costs on customer loyalty. The results call more attention to strengthen the financial switching costs to tighten the noose on customer churn rate.
