significant influence on consumers' purchasing decisions. In a trend towards the green
                  development  of  the  economy  and  society,  the  role  of  communication  is  even  more

                  crucial and evident. Building on previous studies, the author proposed that promotional
                  communications impact attitudes towards the intention to use green banking services.
                        Second, subjective norms are influenced by the factors of belief and motivation.
                  Social  influence  can  enhance  belief  and  motivation,  leading  customers  to  decide  to
                  purchase products or services. Subjective norms are formed based on social factors such
                  as  the  importance  of  maintaining  personal  relationships,  group  dependence,  and
                  community values. This is consistent with Bryson et al. (2016), who also pointed out
                  that  the  influence  of  the  social  community  positively  impacts  customers'  behavior

                  towards accepting and using green banking services.
                        6. Recommendations and limitations of the study
                        The  study  aims  to  extend  the  theoretical  framework  and  provide  empirical
                  evidence on the intention to use green banking services, based on data from individual
                  customers who frequently consume in Hanoi. The findings highlight the significant roles
                  of "Attitude" and "Subjective Norms" in influencing the intention to use green banking

                  services, enhancing consumer benefits for green and sustainable products. Additionally,
                  the study provides insights into the interrelationships among factors through structural
                  equation modeling analysis. Therefore, the author proposes several recommendations
                  for managers and policymakers to promote the acceptance and usage of green banking
                  services now and in the future.
                        Enhancing  promotional  communications:  Banks  should  invest  in
                  communication campaigns to raise customer awareness about the environmental and

                  economic benefits of green banking services. In addition to seminars and conferences
                  providing  useful  and  timely  information  to  customers,  banks  should  also  enhance
                  communication  through  popular  social  media  platforms  like  Facebook  and  TikTok.
                  These approaches can help customers better understand the positive impacts of using
                  these services on their spending, saving, and investment activities.
                        Developing green products and services: Banks need to continuously develop

                  and improve  green  products and services, as well as create new  products that  meet
                  societal needs and guide consumers towards environmental protection and sustainable
                  consumption.
                        Encouraging positive attitudes:  Banks can further promote special programs,
                  free  service  usage,  or  provide  special  incentives  for  customers  using  green  banking
                  products and services. Encouraging all bank staff to use and experience the services first
                  to perfect the products is also beneficial. Creating positive experiences for customers
                  will help change their attitudes positively.

                        Promoting green credit: Close cooperation between the government, financial
                  institutions,  and  consumers  is  crucial.  The  government  plays  an  important  role  in
                  creating a favorable environment through the establishment of appropriate policies and
                  regulations. Financial institutions should not only develop diverse and accessible green
