­Seventy-two hours after the passage of Hurricane Sandy, Jamaica based mobile network, Lime is reporting that it is delivering significant service improvement to the badly-damaged eastern portion of the country as its recovery efforts moves at an even faster pace.

The company says its technicians have been successful in establishing a bypass to a critical cable link located between Harbour View in St, Andrew and Morant Bay, St. Thomas that was damaged by falling poles. The areas were ravaged by the onslaught of Sandy. More work to repair a damaged transmission cable between Bull Bay and Yallahs will vastly improve service to customers in Lloyds and Llandewey.

Meanwhile, thousands of Jamaicans who are without electricity are still able to use their mobile devices, thanks to the efforts of the roving Lime charging stations, which provides charge to phone users regardless of the network to which they subscribe.

The Lime mobile recharge team has been making stops at several communities in Kingston and St. Andrew and St. Catherine. Lime customers also get free mobile phone credit on these stops.

Lime is working closely with the JPSCo for information about the communities that are still without electricity in order to deploy its mobile charging team to assist persons in those areas.
