HERNDON, Va. -- RCN Corporation (NASDAQ:RCNI - News), a leading provider of video, data, and voice services to residential and business customers, announced today that it has launched a new "Shop Online" service on its website, www.rcn.com which enables prospective new customers to order service and even schedule an installation date.
"We're very excited about this new service because it provides quick and simple access for new customers to learn more about and order our outstanding products and services," said RCN Vice President Mark Chinn. "While this service works only for new residential customers today, we do plan to expand its reach to include all of our residential and small business customers in the future."
When visiting RCN's website, www.rcn.com, prospective customers can look for the "Shop Online" tab or various Shop Now buttons. They will be asked to provide a home address and zip code to quickly learn if their home is currently served by RCN. If so, they are then taken into the online shopping process, where they can find out about the wide choice of telephone, data and cable TV packages available and order service online.
"Because we know one size does not fit all, we offer packages that can be customized to match what our customers are looking for in video, data and phone service," Chinn said. "We offer the broadest selection of Internet speeds, calling plans and features, and cable TV programming to fit your online lifestyle and your budget."
