KINGSTON, Jamaica, Observer -Digicel will eliminate roaming charges for clients travelling within the US and Caricom, effective October 1, 2013. Phillip Paulwell, Caribbean Telecommunications Union (CTU) president, announced the agreement with the mobile telecoms giant throughout the region on Wednesday at the opening ceremony of the joint CTU, International Telecommunications Caribbean Ministerial Forum on ICT in Port of Spain, Trinidad. "After some negotiation, Digicel has agreed as of October 1, 2013, on the abolition of voice roaming on Digicel's network in Caricom countries.
