Kissing and telling with Digicel LOL!!

Hmmm…yeah yeah ah know ya’ll wanna hear about how he’s such a great lo__r but this is not about HIM, as he doesn’t really like me blogging and putting our stuff out there all the time.

This is about a new and fresh relationship and it is one I can kiss and tell about…actually it is not really that new you can say we’ve had a love/hate relationship over the past 5 years…but no one wants to leave…ya’ll know what I’m talking about.

It started with a Facebook message to urgently call Troy from Digicel…well first I was like “URGENT”…was he calling me about my recent blast of Digicel on Facebook and Twitter or did I say something publicly somewhere?  Anyone who knows me knows that it no holds bar about customer service in Antigua and Digicel has been on the receiving end many times.  So I called and he asked if I would be willing to test the LTE internet device and one of their 4G phones.   Of course I asked if he’s aware that I’ve blasted Digicel on FB and Twitter and he said yeah and he understands.  So I said YES  not because I was curious about testing the products but because they were willing to take the risk with a loose cannon 😉

After hanging up from Troy all excited now I called Mario, Sharon and posted a few messages on FB and Twitter – YAY THEY PICKED ME!  Yeah I was gloating a lil’.

So  I went to Digicel’s office and collected my little Red & White bag (Christmas came early this year – Digicel’s colours are christmas…ish) signed something I didn’t read…NOT GOOD – should’ve check to see if it included a disclaimer about no bad talking….hmmm hey Troy can I see that paper again please….LOL!

Anyhow got home and immediately plugged in the LTE internet and within a minute I was connected and working on clean…I’m a web developer and social media marketer so internet is crucial to my daily job function.

I uploaded a new website and at no time did my ftp connection got interrupted….so far I’m liking the LTE box.

I was also given an Alcatel 4G phone, but my Superhero’s (Aidan my 8yr old son hence the name of the blog) SIM card is in the phone so he’ll be doing most of the testing…he promises video blogs as he really hates writing.

I did however test Foursquare, Pinterest and YouTube some of the social media platforms  I work with on the phone and it was seamless….no buffering of YouTube videos…SWEET…some additional to distract The Kid with.

All in all no complaints….LOL!

I must admit I am truly looking forward to my mending my relationship with Digicel…however the kissing and telling will prolly end 😉
