Jenny,
First question, where are you located, and where is the job located? That will be a factor in being able to give you any guidance in answering a salary question. For example, a Client Service/Customer Service position at the Financial Software firm I work at, the starting salary for the Support Team is $55,000 per year; however this is in New York City.
Hope this helps.
