New EU roaming charges.
Hi the missus heard something about these being reduced on the radio this morning but I can't find any mention on the Virgin Mobile website. Could someone clarify if/how these changes will affect existing PAYG customers please? She currently has Simply 8 and Addict Extra SIM cards in her phone if that makes any difference.

I've had cheaper calls while roaming in China than in the UK on my EE contract for a few years now...

So you would be better off signing up to a foreign mobile carrier or using one of their sims now? Say you go for a holiday in france, sign up and them come home, it would be a roaming charge.
If this is the case, might force them to lower the prices here. |

EE's roaming is a silly bugger. When you're in a "roaming" country, you get free calls to that country, free calls to the UK, and free international calls to any other roaming country. In the UK, you get free calls to the UK only, but international calls are all chargeable. ---------- Post added at 23:24 ---------- Previous post was at 23:24 ---------- Quote:

3 have had that service since mid/late last year I believe, and recently just added a few more countries to it.
Actually they had the same service many years ago and removed it for a few years, before reintroducing it as the above last year. |

Good, it was kind of silly that I was getting better prices outside the EU (Switzerland) than inside.

Re: New EU roaming charges.
The non EU roaming charges are ridiculous compared to 3's Feel at Home.
When are Virgin Mobile (and other providers) going to be sensible about this. |
Re: New EU roaming charges.
EE had completely free roaming outside the EU before 3's Feel at Home even existed.
MVNOs on the other hand are so cheap in the UK they don't have much option to go much cheaper elsewhere. |
Re: New EU roaming charges.
What ever happens they will get the lost revenue via other charges
