To add insult to injury I believe most of the Irish providers stayed the roaming charges in the UK for Irish customers.

It is what Nige wanted and what the people voted for.

The end of mobile roaming fees in Europe would be a huge win for British consumers. Why are #UKIP trying to stop it? https://t.co/J3uVhDhq0x

Is there a date this comes in? I was in the EU in June and Vodafone had no charges.

Nice to see your unflagging support for large companies to fleece their customers unhindered, here.

Multinationals being able to rip off their punters willy-nilly is definitely the sort of Lexit that Banksy signed up for.

Not all providers are doing this at present, but an increasing number ARE.

So you think people won’t fly because of the roaming charges? And what’s the difference between family time on holiday in this country or abroad?

Genuine questions - be interested in your answers.

I’m Vodafone and had same last month in France. It was because I was on an existing contract from before a certain date when they made the change but any new contracts or when mine runs out it will move to the new charging regime. I imagine you’re the same as me so ok for the time being

Or I'm suggesting binning them off. Multinationals don't rip off punters in the EU I take it?

Nope I am saying that all that data in cloudy things is bad for the environment. So using them less is better.

Edit....great news for the postcard sellers too!

Possibly not in terms of roaming charges within the EU.

How is being out of the EU going to stop that happening?

Surely the answer is to trade closer to home, like as much as possible with the very same geographical continent we are part of.

I am pretty sure free roaming was only legally established in 2017, after the referendum from the previous year. So it couldn't have been part of the Brexit conversation at the time.

Some companies were already offering it though at the time if I recall correctly

Editted - However it could have been part of the negotiated deal
