RCN Gives Lucky New Yorkers One Year of Free Cable

RCN recently announced that six New York City area residents won free cable for one year in the company's "Colossal Cable Giveaway." The winners, who live in Forest Hills, Long Island City and Manhattan, will receive the credit beginning this month.

RCN customer Luisa K. was excited when she received news that she had won. When asked what she planned to do with the savings she explained, "The money will be put away for a whole year for my son who is going to college next year."

In total, 36 winners across RCN's service area will receive free cable, which the company says has a value totaling more than $19,500. The promotion ran in all RCN markets for six weeks. Winners were selected in a random drawing from eligible entries.
