I received a letter telling me my Basic phone plan is being eliminated, why can’t I continue to subscribe to this plan?
There is increasing demand for unlimited calling plans from consumers, a trend which started with wireless phone plans. In order to meet customer demand for simple unlimited phone calling packages we are eliminating confusing, and what can be very expensive per minute billing phone plans. The basic phone plan has a monthly recurring charge and the consumer is billed based on a per minute basis for each call. Now, with RCN’s unlimited calling plan you pay only on flat charge of $20 per month for unlimited local calling without having to worry about per minute charges which can add up.

I received a letter telling me my Premium plan line is being moved to the unlimited local phone plan and rate is going to be $20 per month. Why do I have to pay more for the same service?
RCN provides the greatest value to subscribers for bundling voice, video and data services together. In order to provide these package savings values, we can no longer provide savings in single service subscriptions like a single unlimited local phone line. We encourage you to take advantage of the savings we offer consumers by selecting one of our package offerings, there is a package to suit varied communication needs and promotional incentives are available now.

This phone plan does not include unlimited regional and long distance calling which consumers have been requesting. To meet consumer demand we have eliminated this plan and developed a plan with unlimited local and long distance calling .To help cover the high cost of providing unlimited regional and long distance calling in this plan we have taken the plan up only $12.
