J. Crew has great customer service, according to the report.

Some companies have great customer service.

StellaService conducted a survey to find out which companies executed the best customer service from August-October 2015.

StellaService measured companies based on several tenets of customer service: phone service, email service, chatting, shipping, and return policies.

These companies came out on top overall. It might be worth keeping in mind during the gift-giving season.

According to the report, LL Bean came out on top because the company's customer service representatives consistently respond to all inquiries — and quickly, as well. StellaService's analysts claimed that during the study, they were able to speak to live LL Bean representatives in under 30 seconds when they called, and in less than an hour when they emailed the company.

However, even though LL Bean came out on top overall, it wasn't the highest-rated for any individual category. Net-A-Porter had the best phone-based customer service, Best Buy had the best shipping, Burberry had the best customer service for returns, and iHerb came out on top for email and chat-based responses.
