General Information

As part of Digicel’s effort to drive digital adoption and provide better experience to our customers, we are adding top third-party applications within the already loaded packages. The apps to be included are: (1) YouTube (2) TikTok.

 

Similar to the existing Apps (BiP, Billo, SportsMax, D’Music, GoLoud, Loop News, PlayGo and My Digicel App (MDA)), we will be offering a portfolio of products for prepaid and postpaid customers that will include a ‘data-allowance’ that will enable customers to use these new third-party apps without consuming extra balance from their principal account.

See below a detailed FAQ that can be used to provide all the main questions that customers may have:

2.      What is the change for existing customers?

 

For Prepaid Customer, where old portfolio remains and new one is added as option:

Customer will not experience any difference at all and the new product will be appeared in the various store-fronts (ie. USSD, MDA, IVR and CRM available for agents). Customer will be required to deactivate old bundle and buy new bundle in order to access to new offer.

 

For Postpaid Customers, where old portfolio is replaced by new one:

Customers on the Prime XL and Prime XXL will automatically have this option after the product launch. The change will be communicated via “Email”, and upcoming bill details will also be adjusted. Additionally, new apps allotment will be added into MDA.

 

3.      Why are the Digicel Prime Bundles more expensive than the OLD Prime bundles?

This is about giving our customers more and allowing them to enjoy, touch and feel our suite of digital experiences as they live their best digital lives with us. The Digital Apps Bundle has more value through LARGE data allocations and an array of easy and brilliant Apps (including now Youtube and TikTok).
