    Claro Jamaica is now owned by them, so every one on the Claro JM network will have to start paying for calling those friends and families whom they used to call for free(all day, all night) now that Claro has left Jamaica. I wonder how some long-distance relationship gonna work out now. I’m gonna move soon so I can live closer to my girlfriend or she come live with me, cause all my 4 Claro SIM cards gonna start taking orders from “the bigger, greedier network!” …and I say this without apology :'(
