Its used excessively that it comes out rude and patronizing. Actually its a politeness added to a speech when one is not actually being polite. Customer service managers should teach their responders to use other words like "Please". Kindly is a "Please" followed by an order. "Kindly settle your balance" or we'll clobber you. (in italics implied)

Please settle your balance lands as a more friendly reminder to pay your bills
