Calling Jamaica

[Yvonne]

The international plans are 1000 minutes or 1500 minutes. You need $1250 in credit to get the 1000 min. international plan. Using the same % that'd be $1875, if my math is correct, for the 1500 minute plan. I ran out of my 1000 minutes in 3 weeks & started over. Very easy to top up online. Used my Digicel acct. to pay for my wireless access this summer, too.

Wish I could get a good rate to call JA w/ out having to dial 800 #, pin #, etc. Royal PIA. Don't call often, mainly because it is such a PIA. My phone provider has international calling plans but none include JA, don't even give JA per min rate on their website. Just checked this a.m. since I have a friend in IL who pays - I think - $5 a month & can call JA at no extra cost. I'm pretty sure that's what he told me. Will ask when I talk w/ him again. Of course, you'd have to live in his area to get that deal
