This marks the fourth consecutive year that Cox’s residential telephone service has ranked highest in overall customer satisfaction in the West. Cox has been recognized six years in a row for outstanding customer satisfaction by J.D. Power and Associates. J.D. Power and Associates’ 2008 Residential Telephone Customer Satisfaction Study measures customer satisfaction with both local and long distance telephone service among eight local telephone providers in the West.

In the West, Cox received highest honors in overall satisfaction, scoring 23 points higher than the West average. Cox ranked highest on every factor comprising overall satisfaction, which includes performance and reliability, cost of service, customer service, billing and offerings and promotions.

Overall, cable companies dominated customer satisfaction rankings for the second year for local and long distance telephone service. The J.D.
