Customer Service is what used to be the gauge for measuring a company but now every time you try to make a change in your coverage or service equipment you get another two year commitment and I now am canceling all services that call for that so in March I will be done with Direct TV and have already cancelled Verizon too

J. C. Penney is number 1 on the list while Bank of As*holes isn't even listed? If I remember correctly, J. C. Penney didn't have a hand in destroying the world economy, falsifying millions of legal documents all the while charging you for the "privilege" of using your own money. I can't think of a more worthy company (and all its executives) being launched into the heart of a black hole to be crushed into a point of singularity.

You should put Walgreens on this list also. I am an employee and they've been pushing us to the brink for the past 3-4 years. And the clients are also hating Walgreens for not having the merchandise that's on sale in stock.Check with every employee of Walgreens and I think 70%-75% of all employees hate Walgreens.

I have always liked AT&T and Nationwide as the two that have done right with me.  Best Buy should be on the list for lousy customer service and they ARE NOT the best buy.  Ford motors gives you a written warranty but it is meaningless rhetoric.  Their mechanics are lazy and will bend linkage rather than adjusting it with the wrench.  HP does not honor their warranty for their computers or equipment and  and treat customers as if, they really don't need us...Tammy asked about Time Warner and I'll vouch for the fact they have lousy service and overpriced packages.  Wells Fargo will have you spend an afternoon opening a simple checking account; will treat you as if you are a crook and will not trust your payroll checks or attorney's checks. 

If companies would treat customers with respect and actually provide what they promise to, they could improve their reputations.

Comcast and AT & T should merge to form the ultimate COMPANY FROM HELL.

Oh, but wait if we look more we find Trans Union, CSC Credit Services, Equifax and Experian fronts for the National Banking Consortium are equal to most-hated companies too.

I've had T Mobile for six years and never had a problem. I've had Dish for almost two. I have never had a problem (and there have been very few), that was not addressed and resolved. As for the bank... Hang them all...

T-Mobile is by far the absolutley worst company ever!! Not only is the customer service unprofessional and ignorant about their own products, T-mobile has the most dropped calls, and the slowest data network. Even Cricket has LTE now. I see why apple refuses to tarni**** I-Phone with Their service.

Worst of all, They have lied to the public for years about having the largest and fasted 4g Coverage when infact HSPA+ is actually a modified 3G. This is why T-Mobile customers dont maintain a 4G signal and slips on"E" = Edge network throughout each day. TMOBILE, I AM SOOOO GLAD YOU ARE NO LONGER IN MY LIFE :-)

World Group Securities worst company for ripping off investors. Huge fines in many states and the SEC. They should change their name to World Group Scam.

I guess this list didn't have the companies I hate, but they got close.

I dislike Dish and T mobile...

I'm surprised only Chase made it on the list. What about Capital One? Or GE Credit?

Why isn't Wal Mart on this list with JC Penny?

The record holder for the worst and most hated should be C O M C A S T ! I had to finally let them go because they are such gangsters. I don't miss cable at all, especially since 3/4 of the programming was in spanish anyway. Good Riddance !

Dear Friends at MSN Money: 

 

You do realize that your article lists the most hated companies by picture, right?  After showing each of the most hated companies you then proudly display a picture of MSN Money which makes it seem like you're adding yourself to the list... plus, your picture includes the logo and links to one of the most hated, Facebook.  Just pointing out the obvious...

The worst companies/corporations in my book are Bank Of America, Chase, T-Mobile, Dish Network, and AllState Insurance. They rip off everyone who has any business with them.....

[BRIEFING.COM] The major averages ended higher across the board as the S&P 500 advanced 0.8%.

Equities climbed steadily since the opening bell as investors prepared for tomorrow's policy decision from the Federal Reserve. Although chatter in recent weeks has included speculation the Fed would look to taper its asset purchases, today's broad gains suggest investors expect mostly reassuring words from Chairman Bernanke at tomorrow's press conference.
