Where can you buy a cheap cell phone in Negril...??

I have an Iphone 3 that's just sitting in the drawer at home. I'm thinking of bringing it to Jamaica and having it unlocked. Someone said there is a store across from Scotia bank that does this. Has anyone used them to unblock a phone? If so, how much did they charge? Thanks

There is a private guy named Marko that helps with phones, too. He hangs at Pee Wees and lives a few yards up the lane. Ask for him there.

Or, if you are a do-it-yourself-er, you can call your cell phone provider (or do an online support chat session) and they will walk you through the process of unlocking the phone for free.

FYI, I thought I heard that only unlocked AT&T and T-Mobile phones will work with Jamaican SIM cards. The Blackberry that I unlocked was an AT&T phone and it worked great. I had a strong signal all over Negril.

I unlocked my 4s two days ago. Used scissors to cut my ddigicel sim down to size. Works perfectly so far.

That's good to know, Flip. Did you get a data plan?

We'll be expecting plenty of pics, since you are walking around with a fancy smart phone.
