Ahh good question
Ahh good question
Lime is cheaper to buy & minutes are cheaper. Calling US or Canada is only 3 cents a minute. No need for most people to buy international minutes.
I got a sale in November but paid about $11 for phone, SIM and $100j in minutes.
Nice are they as common as the other?? Haven't been to JA but seen digi cel signs everywhere!!
hey dude.....
what melody said...
my friend Rinakim bought lime phone, minutes, and all for about 20.oo, I think....maybe she will pop in...at the megamart in mobay after you land....kingsley will help...he would loan or rent u a phone if you were using him back to the airport, but he will help set u up....his wife usually does the emails, and she is very helpful...

Actually Lime is not new. It is just a rebranding of Cable & Wireless. But they seem to have stepped up their game to compete with Digicel.
Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him. KJV Psalm 68:4
541lion what type of local Ja calls do you need to make ?? Most places we go someone knows the Limo Mon and they say here use my phone No problem Mon! Only place I payed someone was when I arrive at MoBay we go to the Groovy bar (outside airport) tip A local to make call to my driva once in Negril No Problem Mon !. This past trip the local had my driva's number already and I bought him a red stripe .

We found that the best place was Lime in Mobay or there is one in Negril as well and paid 30.00 for a Nokia phone and 1100 min of talk time which is great deal and don't have to worry about your everyday phone and extra charges or losing it!
Local calls I would make would be to drivers and also a few places to stay in port Antonio
