DigiCHAT

What it is:

DigiCHAT is Fun and simple to use. It is based on the same principles of Internet multi-user chat which millions of people today use online. Users may join existing chat rooms or create new chat rooms, create nicknames for themselves and chat anonymously with other chatters. DigiCHAT allows users ‘chat’ with up to 30 other users in chat rooms using their Digicel mobile phone.

How it works:

DigiCHAT is based on a series of commands that are sent as an SMS message and sent to 2428 (CHAT). Every message your send will be received by everyone in the dating chat room and you get charged the rate for one SMS message (USD 0.14).
