@ Real

Pay attention. The Court said that Digicel must suspend signing up new customers until after the hearing.

This is because the backwards Govt wants to weigh in.

It might be that we see Digicel win and continue to be in the long distance game…

Popcorn and drink: check. Gonna watch and see what happens…

Finally Free – I totally agree that CellOne needs to offer LD too…Digi had a good chance to compete with that LD offer, but without anything more they are going to lose to CellOne. No 4G network, no iPhones, rude customer service. You’ve got to admit CellOne has pulled ahead this last year.

PS – I’m a Digi customer that is looking to switch once contract is up.

Digicel … Did they not put up an illegal tower somewhere? And now this. There motto is do what we want and deal with the backlash after. Seems they beleive to be above the law! Government needs to take a stronger stance on these types of situations and find companies for illegal and shutty business.

Cellone and Frank Hammmer’all were caught with their pants down and only through the idiodic policy reversal by this poor excuse for a Government Telecoms Ministry are they able to stay in the game.Frank should concentrate more on the hundreds of complaints his company receives everyday than on trying to slow down this country’s dominant wireless player.It’s only slight delay in the tsunami his company is about to experience.

Nice… Nice! So now Government can change their minds when they feel like and then enforce it in the court system… sounds like the begining of a destroyed country to me. There is always ONE thing that is the catalyst for several more things. So what’s after this? …do as you please with the law? …oh I’m above the law so I’ll treat people however I like… I smell a dictatorship on the horizon.

Definitely hoping Digicel is able to offer long distance in the end. We’ve already seen how a little competition benefits everybody.

What this boils down to is the govt does not know what they are doing. They allowed digicel to carry this service when it is known that presently it is illegal. If the other companies wud not have objected then digital wud have been operating like everything was normal. The govt needs to be held accountable for the mistakes they make and this is just another one. Are they incompetent or just like to sidetrack the law whenever they can get away with it?? That’s the issue!!

Completely agree. Bring on the competion Bermuda. Paula cox take notes, competion stimulates…..not govt intervention!

I hope it works in digicel’s favour!!!!! It’s called COMPETITION!!! and that’s what we need!!! WE as consumers need to be able to make a choice and choose whomever gives us more “bang for our buck”. Tired of companies having the “monopoly” companies like BTC and Electric Company and the like….we need CHOICES!!!!!!!!!!
