The study evaluated 54 Web sites as a representative sample of the industry's leading companies across three geographies--the U.S., Canada and The United Kingdom, according to a statement from Boston-based CRG. A common set of criteria--site usability, communication and trust from the customer's perspective--are used to compile a Customer Respect Index (CRI) for each company.

CenturyTel earned a CRI rating of 8.1, well ahead of the industry average of 5.9. AT&T, meanwhile, scored a 7.1, and both Verizon Wireless and Cablevision came in at 6.9. A full industry scorecard and further explanation of the criteria can be found at www.customerrespect.com.
