Digicel Roaming Pass Now Includes Canada

Digicel has expanded the scope of roaming pass to include Canada, launching the service today [Apr 10].

A company spokesperson said, “Leading up to a busy travel weekend for Easter, Digicel has expanded the scope of its revolutionary roaming pass to include Canada. The new Digicel USA and Canada Roaming Pass, launched today, offers customers visiting the United Stated and Canada a way to roam without worrying about incurring high charges.

“As an Easter bonus for the month of April, roaming data with a Digicel USA and Canada Roaming Pass costs only 25¢ per megabyte [MB]; this is a 50% discount on the regular pass data price.

“The Digicel USA and Canada Roaming Pass allows Digicel customers to subscribe to and benefit from reduced voice, SMS and data rates when roaming on the AT&T and T-Mobile networks in the USA, as well as Rogers, Telus and Bell in Canada.

“Customers pay $30 to activate a 30 day pass. Once the pass has been activated, incoming texts and calls are free, while outgoing calls are 25¢ per minute and outgoing texts are 25¢ each. During April, data costs have been reduced from 50¢ per MB to 25¢ per MB.

“Using a Digicel USA and Canada Roaming Pass, customers can save between 70-90% on roaming costs.”

Wayne Caines, Digicel Bermuda CEO, comments, “Our USA Roaming Pass was very well received and we want Digicel customers who visit Canada to also benefit from immense savings. We are pleased to offer a further discount on data this month when people are traveling over the Good Friday holiday weekend.”

He continues, “We’ve also made the activation process even easier. Postpaid Digicel customers can now text “USA” or “Canada” to 2451 to activate a Digicel USA and Canada Roaming Pass. The 2451 short code works from USA and Canada using a Digicel SIM, so even if you forget to activate the pass before you go away, you still have a chance to save money on your roaming.”

In addition to the text activation, customers may activate the pass by visiting a Digicel store or by calling 500 5000. More information about the Digicel USA and Canada Roaming Pass may be found online at digicelbermuda.com or by texting “ROAM” to 2451.
