Cell phone rates in OECS set to tumble

Cell phone users in sections of the Caribbean should soon start enjoying lower rates KINGSTOWN, St Vincent, December 8, 2006 - Good news for cell phone users in the OECS countries, the high rates are about to tumble.

This is according to Minister of Telecommunications Dr Jerrol Thompson who said that a study commissioned by the CARICOM Council of Ministers of Telecommunications is to be released next week in which the Eastern Caribbean Telecommunications Authority (ECTEL) has made a case to slash cell phone rates almost in half.

"In the past there was a old costing model which allowed Cable & Wireless to charge and fix a certain type of rate and we felt their cost was much lower," he was quoted in today's edition of the Searchlight newspaper. "The study has indicated that there is no reason why there should be an international rate of 37 cents and a local/regional domestic rate of 62 and 55 cents depending on the time of day or time of week and their conclusion is that the cost should not be any higher than 37 cents and in fact it should be lower because the 37 cents is usually split between the carrier abroad and here. We are very keen on rates being lowered as soon as possible."

He revealed that in Dominica Cable & Wireless had already applied to the regulatory body there to cut the rates but the question is how fast the approval will take. He said it could either be fast tracked or it could go through a consultative process to allow other interest parties to have a say and this will take months.

The issue of a rate slash was raised two weeks ago by the Minister of Telecommunications in St Lucia Felix Finisterre on the campaign trail as the country prepares for general elections.

Earlier this week Prime Minister Dr Ralph Gonsalves told a news conference that his government was eager for a reduction of rates but it had to be done within ECTEL.

"I am quite sure that, and it is normal that the impending democratic imperatives of that exercise which is upon us in St Lucia probably acted as sharper catalyst than perhaps it otherwise have been the case but all the governments in ECTEL are supportive of that broad position of the St Lucian government but we want to work it out regionally which I think is only fair and reasonable."
