LIME has been arguing for lower termination rates which would allow it to compete more effectively, with Sinclair saying last month that the company would be supportive of an interim $5 termination rate — the rate now is over $10.
LIME is now Digicel’s sole competitor in the mobile phones market following the Irish-owned firm’s acquisition of the Claro network.
The Claro deal allowed Digicel to cement its place atop the local mobile telecommunications sector where it claims in excess of two million subscribers among the Jamaican population of 2.8 million.
