    Just on Thursday, someone had also struck and damaged one of Digicel's cables in Spanish Town VG and had their customers in North Soud without service for the better part of the day: I must say that their technicians were on the scene all day working and got it back up. Just makes me wonder.. but guess what, we are not switching, try all you want.
