TV and Internet Providers Hold Strong with Performance and Reliability, J.D. Power Finds


During a time when working safer at home and television binge-watching has been at an all-time high, TV and internet providers see satisfaction improvements for performance and reliability, according to the J.D. Power 2020 U.S. Residential Television Service Provider Satisfaction StudySM and J.D. Power 2020 U.S. Residential Internet Service Provider Satisfaction StudySM, released today.

"With the country quarantining at home, internet and television services were under enormous pressure to continue performing reliably," said Ian Greenblatt, managing director at J.D. Power. "True to form, providers did not succumb to the additional demand. Instead, they kept America connected: working, informed and entertained, thereby retaining their customers' satisfaction."
