In 1995, J.D. Power and Associates launched its first initiative into the wireless industry with its residential wireless customer satisfaction report covering the top 8 U.S. markets. Current subscribers of the major wireless providers were surveyed to determine how they regard their service in all areas that impact satisfaction, including call quality, pricing, branding, billing and customer service issues.

The 2002 U.S. Wireless Industry Services Study also details many aspects that impact the wireless calling experience including opinions on new products/services, usage characteristics, switching tendencies, purchasing dynamics, frequency of bundling services to name just a few. More than just a report card on wireless providers, the wireless industry report identifies key elements of the wireless purchase experience that influence customer satisfaction.

Consumers are more demanding and better informed than ever before. Today it is not unusual for a customer to know more about a particular product or service than those who assist them. Quality is no longer enough. To survive in this fiercely competitive environment, you need a dedicated focus on customer satisfaction. If you satisfy more customers, you’ll retain more customers.

J.D. Power and Associates developed the Certified Wireless Service Customer Satisfaction Program to recognize individual wireless service markets or call center divisions that achieve an industry benchmark level of customer satisfaction.
