bmobile new MyLime deal spurs revolt?

[vinion2000]

like the masses say "fyah bun my lime". look yes to many it look like ppl being cheap.....but.....is it? how many of us use prepaid? these are the rates (vat exclusive)

Bmobile Prepaid Rates

Day Evening Weekend
Standard $1.30 $0.65 $0.50

this is VAT exclusive so you basically looking at $1.75 in the morning, $0.75 at night and $0.60 on weekend. that means that in the morning if you have to make some calls on a $20 credit, it gone in 11mins. bmobile prepaid is more expensive than digicel if the bulk of your calls are before 6pm (which often they are).

Digicel Prepaid
Day Evening Weekend
To Digicel $1.15 $0.85 $0.55
To Fixed lines (Flow, TSTT) $1.25 $0.95 $0.65
To other mobile $1.60 $1.50 $1.40

frankly more customers would have digicel......but....most live with bmobile higher daytime rates because of my lime. promotional or not Bmobile knew its my lime was its winning deal. it was a win win. charging for my lime now makes bmobile less attractive. sure its just $0.75 an hour but its the principle. i cant blaim ppl for leaving and personally i dont use it even if i have money on my phone.
