If they don't give a satisfactory bank somewhere else (or offer your services ;)). Certainly that is a better approach than scanning to see what you can find out. The organization receiving the scan has no way of knowing what your intentions are -- and should interpret them as hostile.
I think that's pretty stupid. If I had my network admin investigate every portscan, my staff costs would go up 10x and I'd quickly go bankrupt. Instead we keep our servers very secure, and spend the time and effort only when there is evidence of a break in.
