Caribbean nationals can expect to benefit from an estimated 70 percent reduction in roaming charges from as early as the second quarter of this year following Wednesday’s signing of a declaration between Grenada and two major telecommunications providers.
“CARICOM residents will now roam in CARICOM States at significantly reduced cost up to 70% saving by one estimate,” the Caribbean Telecommunications Union (CTU) said in a press release after Wednesday’s signing.
The declaration, the release said will result in the reduction of intra-Caricom roaming charges and facilitate the provision of seamless mobile (cellular) services including voice, SMS text and data.
