Hi John,

Go to the Digicel store next to Burger King and get a sim. Data connect will cost approx 110 JA for 48 hrs of 4G where available (3G most anywhere) and half a gig of data. If you're not leaving Negril it will be 4G most of the time.

Compare that with the data packages in the US!

are you saying that i can pay as much as i want for the card depending on how much im going to use it? not sure what this thing is gonna cost me

[jodake]

so 10 days =550j.. what about calls?

[chigirl]

Don't know much about iphones but there is another phone shop across the street from Burger King that sells phones and sim cards up stairs on the second floor the cambio is in front of the building

I think thats the Lime store chigirl...it's where I go...cheap

My Sim card at Lime cost me $300 JA, that's about 3US

The Lime store is upstairs from Value master. Probably cheaper than Digicel but not sure, I use Lime but on a regular Android. You don't have to get the data if you don't want to, you can use the internet at Wifi Hot spots.

so do u buy the sim card and then buy minutes? never done it before so excuse the ignorance

[rastagal]

Yes, you can get the minutes while you are there as well. And just top up if needed.
