Things invariably go wrong with any product or service, and those people need support to get them back to the experience a company tries to put forward for everyone. When what goes wrong is the phone we keep our whole lives on, or the cellular connection that we use as a literal lifeline in our darkest moments, good customer service isn't just desires, it is necessary.

So, which carriers took the top spot in a new survey of carrier customer support by Tom's Guide?

Verizon came first this year, beating out last year's winner AT&T as well as inching past T-Mobile. T-Mobile just edged out AT&T, knocking the Texas-based carrier down to third in this year's rankings. AT&T added AI-based operators to its support call system, slowing response time and rankling its ratings.
