What can I say?!! their prices are horrible the hidden fees are the ones that really suck your money. Their customer service is not bad ,they try to help if there's any problem .The speed is ok.But their problem is that they suck the money of your pockets and wen you do a contract with them if they feel like it they would change things in it so you end up spending more money.

I am very satisfied with the reliability/accessibility of RCN. I am particularly pleased with the service they provide. I have been an RCN customer for over ten years and they have always been prompt, polite, and helpful.
