For those who are interested, here is a recent (Oct 2018) survey by CR...of various Investment Companies.

I too have atts at Vanguard, T. Rowe and Fidelity. At big plus for Fidelity is the fact that they have a location in Lake Sumter so if you want to talk to a HUMAN drop something off or pick something up it is there. If, you wish to put your holdings at T. Rowe, Vanguard without selling them you can have Fidelity hold them for you. Only caution I am aware or is that Fidelity will not
honor the reduced management fees associated with Vanguard
Admiral shares. Also, if in a company sponsored IRA, 401K etc you many find that as my wife did that there are company plans where you pay lower management fees than the same exact fund traded as a different code.
RE: Vanguard or T. Rowe
Service is mon-fri 9-5:00. Fidelity-you will find someone to answer the phone anytime including weekends.
