Digicel/Lime pros cons

Lime too! Bought a phone for about $15 I was good to go for the time i was there. Great reception!

I'm going to go with LIME as well when I get there. I've had Digicel but LIME is cheaper to call International and Lime to Lime. From what I've heard, the reason no one wants to get Lime there is that if you have a Lime phone and someone else has Digicel, it costs them more to call you and vice versa. Makes sense for the locals.

Where is the LIME store in Negril?

What would be quicker....get the driver to stop in MoBay (assuming there's a LIME store there too) and grab one there, or wait until I'm in Negril?

There is a LIME counter in Mega Mart in Montego Bay. I know there is another one that I was going to have our driver stop at but we stopped at Mega Mart first and our driver found the LIME counter there. It's just a small counter and we had to get someone to come over and serve us, but all went well. When you come in the store, turn right immediately and head past the Scotia ATM and the counter is straight ahead towards the back wall. The LIME store in Negril is above the Value Master grocery store.

Thanks for the info I might try popping into Mega Mart....and I hear they have the best prices for rum there!

Just got back. Had my driver call a Lime store on the way to Negril. I think it was in Lucea. When we passed through there was someone on the street in front of the Lime store with a Lime bag...phone in it's box with a charger and minutes on it, charged and ready to use. All for $20us

Now that's what I call service!

We used a Lime in August and didn't update minutes. Went to buy a SIM card in January but they just reactivated the phone and they charged us a total of 300J for 90 intl minute. Love Lime.

rastagal...it was great! I had a buddy with me, first trip to Jamaica, and he couldn't believe it. I told him things like that tend to happen all the time in Jamaica...just ask for something and it usually ends up happening :-) I think he will be back for a second trip!
