1 articles · Updated · Jamaica Observer · Aug 23

Summary

  • $8,038.33 plus GCT was credited to the customer's account on July 23, removing charges tied to a service outage that ran from May 29 to July 20.
  • Flow said the rebate covered months of disrupted Browse and Talk landline and Internet service after the customer first reported problems in February and later lost service completely.
  • Internet service has since been restored, but the customer said the connection still fluctuates after working only intermittently for minutes at a time before failing again.
  • Flow has indicated the modem will be replaced, while the Jamaica Observer's Tell Claudienne column said it will keep following up until service is fully restored.
