Tech tutorials, howtos and walkthroughs

Travel is an inevitable part of living in the Caribbean. Now that FLOW Jamaica is 1 million strong as per the celebration vibes captured in How Flow Jamaica celebrated 1 million customers with a 99 cents FAM Plan, having a reliable Network while you roam is more critical than ever!

So how do you make calls when you’re no longer in your country of origin?

Well, you can always use WhatsApp, but that’s if you have an unlocked Quad-Band smartphone and you can purchase a SIM from the Network in that country. Not to mention the people you call have to also have Skype or WhatsApp and have either an active Data plan or be in close proximity to reliable Wi-Fi.

You can also purchase a MiFi from that country and then switch on your Wi-Fi and make all our calls via Skype and Wi-Fi. But if you’re going to be among regular people who are not teenagers or Millennials, you can’t depend on Wi-Fi, even from a portable MiFi.

Instead, you’ll need one of three (3) Roaming Plans from FLOW Jamaica:

  • MyRoam Prepaid
  • MyRoam Postpaid
  • One Rate Caribbean Roaming Plan

So here’s the details on the various Roaming Plans offered by FLOW Jamaica.

However, these Roaming plans really apply to the US, UK, Canada and the Caribbean. Since we already live in the Caribbean, shouldn’t there be a Roaming plan designed especially for the Caribbean?

One Rate Caribbean Roaming Plan – Because We are one Special Caribbean People

Fortunately there is; it’s called the One Rate Caribbean Roaming Plan and is as shown below.
