Thanks for the comment!

LIME buying Claro… hmmm… Although LIME/C&W definitely has the resources, from my armchair, layman’s position, I am not sure whether LIME’s business strategy included that possibility. Besides, from what I understand from the newspapers, there has been a bit of a shake up in LIME Jamaica recently, and do remember that the company is supposedly in partnership with another firm. That announcement was made late last year, little or no detail was provided.

Can anyone shed some light on LIME has been up to?

I am not for the deal because of the position LIME has in the market and I am not certain they can provide that rigorous competition we (consumers) want to see in the market.

Hopefully LIME will get some customers though. I think the company that will come out on top will have to be on the cutting edge in terms of providing the best phones with the best deals.

Its a good deal. Funny though, my friends and I thought LIME would buy CLARO or CLARO would buy LIME not Digicel.
