The phone we have was purchased last year, so definitely POST Irma. Possibly the problem we had was fairly localized to Mt. Choisy, where our villa was located, although I think others have stated they had problems in the Orient area. We didn't try to use the phone this time except at the villa. Where we were was closer to the towers in Anguilla than the ones in Sint Maarten, and we were on the wrong side of the mountain between us and the Dutch side. We got GREAT roaming service from Lime, which is the service on Anguilal.
