They absolutely fuck with lines. I'm in downtown Chicago and I finally had RCN added to my condo building (only 8 units) and half the folks here switched to RCN right away. About 8 months later I see a Comcast truck in the alley (only three condo buildings feed into this alley, it's quite small) and think to myself "god I hope they don't mess up my internet" and sure as shit, I go inside and my RCN line had been disconnected and their truck was gone. RCN was great about it and came out the next day but it was too much of a coincidence.
