Continuing to deliver on its promise to provide innovative telecoms products for the Caribbean market and beyond, LIME has now unveiled “LIME Talk”, a groundbreaking, free-to-download, Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) application that allows iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad users overseas to call the Caribbean for as little as US $0.16 per minute.
“LIME Talk” can be used on several popular Apple smartphones including the best selling iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS and iPhone4 handsets. “LIME Talk” is also compatible with several other Apple communication devices including the iPod Touch — 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation — and the revolutionary tablet, the iPad. Customers can use the application on any of these devices to make phone calls using a Wi-Fi or 3G internet connection.
LIME has partnered with Telecom New Zealand USA (TNZ), a leading provider of voice, data and mobile services across the Americas, to make the leading edge solution available to the Caribbean Diaspora. Through the Apple App Store and iTunes, “LIME Talk” will be easily available for free download to over 100 million consumers across the USA, Canada and Europe.
This prepaid service gives customers 120 minutes of talk time for calls to LIME fixed lines and mobile phones across the Caribbean for the low price of US $19.95. The plan covers calls to any LIME fixed or mobile customer in Antigua, Anguilla, British Virgin Islands, Barbados, Cayman Islands, Dominica, Grenada, Jamaica, Montserrat, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia, St. Vincent & the Grenadines, and Turks & Caicos.
In addition, customers also have the option of making out of plan calls to any other destination across the world at affordable rates by adding additional credit to their accounts via credit card or debit card.
Outlining the customer benefits of the new product, LIME’s Chief Marketing Officer, Chris Dehring said: “LIME Talk offers some of the lowest, most affordable rates currently available for calling the Caribbean from the US and other parts of the world and the fact that it’s a prepaid service means that customers can have better control over their spend.”
“LIME Talk is easy to use and very convenient because once users download the application and subscribe to the service they can always access it from their device and there’s no need to constantly buy phone cards or input lots of numbers and codes to make a call,” he added.
“We anticipate that “LIME Talk” is going to be extremely popular not only in the Caribbean community but for customers worldwide who call the Caribbean often for business or personal reasons. When it comes to affordability and convenience “LIME Talk” is going to be hard to beat.”

****DNO i posted this comment 3 days ago, but it was not displayed, why would that be?
this is relevant to the Dominican public, this information will help them save or reduce there cell phone bills.
isn’t this the way we should do things, am i not my brothers keeper???????
Really LIME! Hard to beat? The oodles of FREE VOIPsolutions can’t beat this desperate attempt? Y’all better keep firing those apparently witless overpaid executives.
I guess that is a special rate only when you buy US$19.99 of credit. The website says calls to the Caribbean are US$0.20 for landlines and US$0.25 for mobile.

LIME, you are too late. We have countless means of communication, so your package is really extremely unattractive. Calling the Caribbean from USA.and Canada is basically free for most of us.
I realize that you are in the process of running your company bankrupt with your deadly roaming charges. You really cannot eb serious LIME. This is an age of telecom, when life is a dream. Yuo will wake up when all your customers run to digical what free roaming.
Now LIME, you have a new trick with TK1 and TH 7. You have fooled us for a long time, get real LIME. Wakeup and smell the telecom coffee.
8.5 cents a minute to landlines in d/a with Boss Revolution.Lime sounding like a lemon to me.lol
Google Talk it is for me… LIME should check the market better than that.. Research people RESEARCH!!!
once the backbone on Dominica’s ISP’s speed up then smartphones can use apps like Skype, Viper and several other FREE VOIP solutions already available to those in the U.S
They need to release a version for Android and other platforms like WebOs/Symbian and windows phone 7.
Google talk is US$0.13 per minute.
They charge me $0.19 to mobile lines
so LIME Talk is better and its not peer to peer so includes any wireless or fixed line and quality is excellent…get on it
