    Digicel must sort out their network to facilitate this!!!

    Imagine you are in an emergency or trouble/distress
    and have your phone equipped with credit.
    You try calling for help and constantly getting network error,
    you then send a text message after several attempts to get your
    call answer. The text was not notice, what do you do?

So Digicel by far has a betta advantage den di odda 2 carriers which aint ****. Cause 900 Mhz networks are much more widely used and betta 4 voice quailty than di 850Mhz frequency. Lesson done for 2day.
    Big man is simple a network overload because with 2 million subscribers trying to make free calls will result in a network overload, simple. Whether it be 900 freq or 1800 freq everything has its capacity. What are you trying to say about this off peak foolishness, common sense would have told you that off peak rates are cheaper therefore more people are trying to make calls thus increasing the chance of congestion. It kinda mess up still but it is expectable.

    It seems that your eloquent display of telecoms knowledge showed that you don't know much about about telecoms at all. lol

    I agree it is simply a matter of congestion as so many persons are staying up at nights to get in on the FREENESS and clogging the network in the process hence dropped calls and network busy messages.

    Hmm. I only made a few attempts last night but I got through.

    I guess this will eventually cool off a bit...I hope.

    Wolfman this is Jamaica and people love FREENESS no backfoot....Frankly I think the network will remain crowded for sometime especially since this is a special promotion....and I know the weekends will be even MAD CRAZY to get through cause most persons are up partying and the works.
