There is a another sto UTS store in the Paradise Mall in Cole Bay that will take care of you . Also there is another good communications place within the Carrefour on Bush road which is very good too. I have used both with success.

After dealing with both UTS stores, The Mailbox and Tech Hub (within Carrafour), I would suggest Tech Hub. Their hours are 10:00 to 6:30 so they are not the same as the store. Very knowledgeable people working there, unlike the other places. UTS office would be good if you just needed a SIM card but if you need anything else, Tech Hub for sure. UTS stores are not open open on Saturday. Not sure of the weekend Tech Hub hours but I did check their sign the other day when I needed to use them. I found the price of a SIM card to vary from between $18-$27 and they include about $10 in phone time credit. Tech Hub does have a facebook page if that helps. TECH HUB

I thought to add data to the phone cost $35 at Tech Head. We may be talking about the same thing.... the $30 charge plus perhaps the Tech Head $5 charge?

No, the $30 is to add data to the phone. Currently it is just cell/text. Leona, I'm curious about this. Is it a Chippie sim? Supposedly there's a code you enter to purchase data on your Chippie phone, but when I tried that in December, it didn't work.

Supposedly there's a code you enter to purchase data on your Chippie phone, but when I tried that in December, it didn't work. Ditto. I had looked it up on the Chippie sight, but apparently that only applies to Curacao and Aruba. I tried and tried to activate with the magic code. Got response texts that it doesn't activate in SXM. Perhaps that's why Linda had to actually go in to the UTS store? I shall see soon.
