yep yep
that'll work

don't add much ... $5 is enough

me-personaly,
don't have time for all that
so,
i leave mine with my Lucea-mentor
to hold
'til i return

they add credit to my phone
on the first of the month
and
when Digicell give extra-extra one-time *credits*

then mi-mentor,
transfers the credits
over to dem phone

i call it ::::>> a ''''keep my phone safe *fee*'''

dunno WHAT they did or didn't do
but
last trip
when i added credits to my phone
the thing went crazy
making all kinds of rings & dings & funny-tones
as a bazzilion credits pop-up on my phone when i added phone credits.

Good to know thanks Smith. ONLY 4 DAYS~~~ till I get to buy that phone!! And take it to the beach! And order me up from good things from Sweet Spice, and some nice massage from Jackie ... and some lobster pizza from chances -- or so many things I can do with a phone!

Peace.

WHY you have to go chat 'bout that good-good Ja-food ....???..
.................. WHY you go there..???

THIS thread 'spose to be 'bout cellie ... not food.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

excessive food-chat is so-out-of-order

Smith you playing with me? I had to go to the local Fish and Chips place, which has a sign in the window that says "we sell Jamaican food" last week to get me some brown stew beef and some jerk pork. Getting in the mood!

As for mixing threads, well sometimes I get carried away ;

I'll try again after I get to Negril this weekend.

Did any of you have this problem?

I have an old Iphone 4, I assume I could use that but not sure about the getting it unlocked part.

Actually, a Digicel SIM is good for about 1 year, even after you run out of credit. I've been using the same SIM for over 2 years now. I just top it up before my trip.

Check out this thread to find out when your SIM expires:
