Greetings
Ok peoples Digicel has posted their information about their 4G rates which ofc I will show you all. Honestly in my view its very GOOD. W.e you paying now for your data plans or blackberry plans etc is just converted and changed into the Data 4G/3G plans if you was to really analyse it so competition is tight yet again. I views the prepaid Pass and to be honest UNLESS you is a streaming and downloading biatch such as myself and geek and nerd and w.e you wana call me you wouldn't even pass 200mbs lol. but if your post paid it has rates for you as well so hey me personally I cater spending $400.00TT on my cell phone post paid with data for my blackberry so dont matter if your with the Green or with the Red network so far Digicel has set the marker and boy does it look good.
