Posted by ShopinJA in Mobile Tech on June 5th, 2009
Well LIME once again will increase calling rates come July 12, 09′ 
With LIME basically having no competition in the Land-line market they can just about do anything or can they ?? What other alternatives do we really have? Is Flow Jamaica even a contender ?

More for rental, local calls; less for overseas talktime | Published: Friday June 5, 2009
LIME Jamaica, saying its plan is to ‘rebalance’ income streams from its landline segment, will, in one month, charge customers less to make international calls, but more to call locally.
Effective July 12, postpaid landline customers will pay $10 per minute for calls overseas, down from $15.75 - amounting to a 36.5 per cent cut in rates. Cuba is exempt from the programme.
But LIME plans to make up the call revenue foregone from phone subscriptions, on which rental charges will grow by 12 per cent, moving from $700 to $785 per phoneline.
Off-peak calling rates will also be increased, from 65 cents per minute to 99 cents, up 52 per cent.
