15 June 2017 | Roaming charges are abolished in the EU.

A process that started more than 10 years before, with the European Commission launching a website (2005) with the prizes & issues.

From some €12 for a 4min call when travelling abroad...to no extra charges.

8 years of free EU roaming – we've come a long way:

2000s: €0.50-€1/min calls
2007: roaming caps
2017: end of charges
2022: "Roam like at home" extended to 2032

Fair for operators. Free for you.
