Based in Barbados, Martin will report directly to Digicel Barbados CEO, Mark Linehan, and will be responsible for driving the Digicel Business’ ICT strategy across Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, St. Lucia and St. Vincent and the Grenadines as part of Digicel’s regional business solutions strategy.

“I am thrilled to be joining the Digicel team. With more than 20 years’ experience in the industry, I look forward to sharing experiences and working with the team to deliver tailored solutions to business customers across the Eastern Caribbean South.  I am joining a strong team that has worked hard to date in understanding our customers’ needs and delivering on their requirements, and I will use my experiences to drive the business to greater heights across the Caribbean,” said Keogh.

    Big Bannan maybe you haven’t noticed but cell phone service, especially prepaid, in the Caribbean is cheaper than the US and UK. They pay to make and receive calls and texts. For them airtime is airtime either way. We only pay to make.

    While we’re buried in third-world-ism the White man continue to capitalize on us. Paying as you go for any phone service in 2013 (as your only option) is absurd. And we in Dominica and Africa have not yet found that out. Absolute Rip Off.

    Admin: Telecommunications providers in Dominica, including Digicel, do offer post-paid mobile phone service.
