Has anyone had experience using this yet? If so, would you please comment on how well it works, the cost, etc. Any comments--positive or negative--would be appreciated.

Thanks very much.

Me too re Lime and Flow. Digicel told me they could not give me internet on my land above the midddle of Great Bay main road.

Whatever you do, do not go with LIME.

The lines are mostly out of order and the "repair" people usually cannot solve the problems.

And one still gets bills with numbers called that one does not recognize.

Maps of the areas covered by the services are surely accesible by all these providers. If they are, share them with us so we can see if where we need use is covered.

Waiting in line or wasting phone credit to get this information is not good service. If they are not available, why not?

I was told at a Digicel office that they are not in TB yet and did not know when they would be.
But....as soon as they are......

4G isn't available in Treasure Beach yet but hold on to your horses everyone. A fast, affordable and reliable internet service is in the works for our community and is being tested right now. I can't say any more about it but it should be up and running in about two months. It is being installed and implemented by one of our 'own' from T'beach. I will be the first to sign up when that happens. No more CWJ or Lime or whatever they call themselves. Can't wait.
