Verizon Ranked First in Consumer Reports’ "Best Wireless" Service Survey


In a survey of more than 50,000 readers spanning 26 U.S. cities, Consumer Reports found Verizon had the highest consumer satisfaction scores, while AT&T had the lowest customer-satisfaction rating in 19 cities surveyed. In fairness, the rankings are fairly close for three of the four service providers ranked.

Verizon received an overall score of 75, while T-Mobile USA got 70, Sprint got a score of 67 and AT&T got a score of 66. Consumer Reports itself says that differences of less than three points are not meaningful, so Sprint and AT&T essentially got the same score. And just three points separate T-Mobile from both Sprint and AT&T.

Another way of looking at matters is that while Verizon got scores noticeably different from the other three providers, and while T-Mobile USA was a clear number two, Sprint and AT&T were fairly close.
