I called the Treehouse to make reservations 876-957-4287 and Verizon charged me almost $12.00 for an 8 minute call. Is it common knowledge to not call 876 numbers?
Verizon removed it after it pitched a fit.

Verizon cellphone to Ja is really expensive as you've discovered.
A land line from the US is about 16 cents a minute.

Sprint is 2$ a minute...so you got a deal..lol
Do NOT use 876 #s, it's outrageous, look for a 800 # on websites, Bar-B-Barn, I always use their 800 #, no charges!
Us Cellular to Jamaica 50 cents a minute. We use a landline to call too.
Rebtel is up to .24 a minute

So, help me out here. I can get 1000 international calling minutes in Jamaica for about 1200Ja. That works out to about 1.2 cents USD per minute of talk time on our cell in Jamaica to call home. But our USA and Canadian cell carriers are charging as much as $2.00US for 1 minute of talk time. Me thinks the cell companies in the US and Canada are making a lot of money here.
Our american and Canadian cell companies can learn a lot from the little 3rd world island of Jamaica. I believe the term we use here is American (and Canadian) greed.
if you really want to get fleeced --- use your USA/Canadian cell phone in Jamaica
5 dollars a day for folks who are pricing a reach.
Seveen is right. You can BUY a 45 dollar cellphone and a 1000 J phone card and have a carefree stay with plenty of connection to North America and all
'round town talk for two weeks or more for less than 60 dollars U.S.A. or Canada.
