[Advanced online publication on 10 May 2022]. https://doi.org/10.1108/EJMBE-05-2021-0157Abstract Purpose This paper analyzes previously unmeasured effects of a response to a service incident called “benevolent” within the customer –firm relationship. Design/methodology/approach A questionnaire was administered to telecommunication customers in a Western European country, and the model was estimated using partial least squares (PLS). Findings This study shows that the customer–firm relationship is surprisingly affected by the response to expected incidents that the customer interprets as acts of benevolence or opportunism. This research also shows that the firm's incident response interpreted as benevolence or opportunism has an effect that merely positive or negative events do not. Acts of benevolence response towards an incident positively affect customer–firm relationship quality, and expectations of such acts may lead to an upward spiral in customer commitment. Originality/value While benevolence trust has been proposed and studied before, the response to incidents interpreted as benevolent or opportunistic and their consequences have been under-studied, hence exhibiting a research gap.Information Management Research Center (MagIC) - NOVA Information Management SchoolNOVA Information Management School (NOVA IMS)RUNCoelho, Pedro SimõesRita, PauloRamos, Ricardo F.2022-05-11T22:49:13Z2023-05-122023-05-12T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article17application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/137791eng2444-8451PURE: 43841901https://doi.org/10.1108/EJMBE-05-2021-0157info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T05:15:15Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/137791Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:48:54.079912Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
