Antigua St John's - A break in the LIME owned fibre optic cable system in the Southern Caribbean region has resulted in a major disruption in inbound and outbound mobile calls on LIME's network in Antigua and Barbuda and other neighbouring islands.

Incoming and outgoing International Direct Dial (IDD) calls, both from cell phones and fixed lines, have also been affected. 

LIME has informed the Telecommunications Division that its team of engineers around the region is working to correct this problem.

Telecommunications Officer within the Ministry of Information, Broadcasting, Telecommunications, Science and Technology Clement Samuel said, “At approximately 10:20am, as the Telecommunications Officer I became aware that LIME customers were experiencing difficulties completing International Direct Dial (IDD) and mobile calls.”

“LIME General Manager Davidson Charles advised that the problem appears to be the direct result of a cable break on LIME’s Eastern Caribbean Fibre System (ECFS).
