I purchased a roaming plan. Got an email that said the plan is being added. Now, @FLOWJamaica barred my account from making calls because of UNBILLED charges. They claim that the roaming plan I purchased was not activated, due to "technical issues".

Still here, @FLOWJamaica , unable to make calls. This, despite assurances from the FOURTH Flow rep with whom I had a texting session in the last 24 hours. You know what? I stand with my compadres in Western Jamaica, who are without connectivity due to Hurricane Melissa! ✊🏾
