LIME is now offering BlackBerry customers two new plans – Blackberry Social and Blackberry Chat — which are designed to make the world of BlackBerry more accessible to a wider audience and to fit almost any budget and style.
The plans are the first of their kind in the English Speaking Caribbean and were tailored to suit the growing demand for BlackBerry service in our market.
BlackBerry Social is LIME’s new BlackBerry plan that gives customers unlimited use of BlackBerry applications such as favorite social networks – Facebook and MySpace, & Twitter. Customers also have access to BlackBerry Messenger (BBM), Yahoo Messenger, ICQ and GoogleTalk. The plan, however, does not include email or Internet browsing.
BlackBerry Chat is LIME’s new BlackBerry plan that gives customers unlimited email and access to popular chat services including BlackBerry Messenger (BBM), Yahoo Messenger, ICQ and Google Talk. The Plan does not, however, include access to Internet browsing or social networks.
According to Emerson Hewitt, Vice President Customer Solutions: “These two new plans were designed bearing in mind, in particular, persons who previously might not have been able to afford BlackBerry service. This now gives customers, especially the youth market, an even more affordable way to stay connected to their friends/ colleagues and families for one low fee. And there is no set-up fee for BlackBerry Social or BlackBerry Chat”
One of the big selling features of these plans is that each gives customers access to the extremely popular BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) service. This unique online chat service really maximizes the BlackBerry experience as it gives users access to real-time communication with contacts. Users are able to personalize their profile with pictures and status messages. Plus, they can send documents, image, audio or video files during a conversation. BBM is unlimited and included in all LIME’s BlackBerry plans.
Both BlackBerry Social and Chat can be combined or “bolted on” to any other pre-paid or post- paid plan and BlackBerry customers enjoy free roaming anywhere in the Caribbean where there is LIME/ bmobile service.
And as part of LIME’s 100 Days of Summer promotion, anyone who signs up for any of LIME’s new postpaid Social plan will get 100 days of free service plus the chance to buy a BlackBerry Smartphone at a discounted price.
Lime can never put a plan in effect for their customers to benefit. Their call rates so expensive that,s why i have a dual sim phone and use digi a lot more.digi is $40 a month and is you don’t have a cent on your phone you can still call your digi customers. I had alltalk and I took it out for 2 main reasons. 1) they can give the alltalk cheaper than that,or why not let people choose their alltalk plan like 2500 minutes for half the price and 2) i mean how can we the customers pay lime so much money for all talk up front that is and if you don’t have a cent on you phone you can’t call your alltalk numbers? That’s highway robbery. So if someone money finish on their phone and they are in the middle of no where in an area where vehicles hardly pass and they break down and they use their last cent already to call a land line how are they going to call for help and they have alltalk? All because they don’t have 1 cent on their phone and the most part they paid for their alltalk for the month already. HIGHWAY ROBBERY IS WHAT LIME IS DOING US. LET US CHOOSE OUR OWN PLAN THAT’S GOOD FOR US. RIGHT NOW DIGI IS THE WAY TO GO MY FELLOW DOMINICANS.
@stupes: So why take advantage of customers by charging for something that is not necessary. I understand LIME can charge for the data plan, but then why charge for something is not chargeable. LIME is just a rip-off.
Your customers are Plan weary at this stage. All we want right now is a reinstatement of FREE roaming. Nothing else will compensate.
that person below me workin for lime man?? stupes
@ jun-jay_98:
stupes…right away all you sell out de business. all you dominicans just cannot keep all you a$$ shut?!
All a consumer needs is to sign up for a data plan – unlimited, 3G or whatever the service provider has available. Then that consumer can get his or her friends blackberry pin code, and viola. Go to crackberry.com, it’s free.
