In addition, customers who have registered numbers in one of these Caribbean destinations as part of their SmartChoice or TalkAway plans will get their extra discount on top of this great offer.
The offer applies to calls from the Cayman Islands to the following destinations:
- Anguilla
- Antigua
- Barbados

- Grenada
- Montserrat
- St. Kitts & Nevis
- St. Vincent & Grenadines

The offer is available every night between the hours of 6 PM and 8 AM, and throughout the weekend from midnight on Friday to midnight on Sunday.
General Manager of Cable& Wireless, Cayman Islands, Mr. Timothy Adam, said: Cable & Wireless is making good on the commitment we gave to our customers back in October last year to reduce our prices. Across the region so far weÕve reduced our international direct dial rates by an average of 27% across the board, we've reduced dial-up internet rates, and we've lowered the cost of direct connect to the internet for businesses by more than 60% in some cases. That's a tangible example of demonstrating that we've heard our customers and we are responding to their needs.
The offer runs from October 20th to December 15th and applies to international direct dialled calls from fixed lines only.
