Just after the May holidays, when most people are likely to be abroad, what a surprise.

The bad news is a Government minister, under the bill, could withdraw the ruling. Even Henry VIII couldn't have done that! |

The power is there to ensure the odd word here and there can be altered without having to take each individual example to the commons, which would take forever. Not to rewrite substantive pieces of legislation. |

5. To comply with EU Regulations, Roam Like Home also has a monthly data cap in place. If you use more data than the monthly cap allows we may apply a surcharge to any data above the cap. The data cap is set by the Regulations and depends on the price of your airtime plan.
5.1. It’s a simple calculation: 5.1.1. Pay monthly customers: twice your monthly airtime cost (before VAT) divided by the current EU data wholesale capped rate. 5.1.2. Pay As You Go customers: data up to the amount that can be purchased at the current EU data wholesale capped rate with the credit you have on your account at the point of roaming. 5.2. You can see the surcharge rates and the latest EU data wholesale capped rate in our Tariff Table. ---------- Post added at 20:17 ---------- Previous post was at 20:15 ---------- Where is the tariff table, this seems complicated to me! |
Re: Bye Bye EU Roaming charges
I'd expect the tariff table will become available once the new charging is live in June

Of course the "odd word here and there" will always be the thin end of the wedge, ripe for misuse.

From 15 June we are free from EU roaming charges for next two years. it cost of using mobile phone using at your home: angel: The EU started tackling the issue of high roaming charges more than a decade ago, but finally on Thursday 15 June cross-border roaming charges within Europe will cease.it's really a surprise for us :)

I work outside the UK most working weeks (taking advantage of freedom of movement), and it's nice to see my bill finally drop. Wholesale rates for data and calls are pretty minimal but mobile networks have been using roaming as a mechanism to gouge customers for years. |
