In Europe, the end of roaming charges has been voted on!

Many times rejected, finally adopted,the law
on the removal of roaming charges in Europeindeed comes
to be adopted by the European Parliament for the implementation of new
prices as of June 15, 2017. Concretely, from that date,
the user will be able to use their French DATA package abroad
without having to pay additional fees, in any case since a
other country of the European Union:

Already last Junethe subject was on
tableof the European Commission. But repeal has regularly been
postponed until the last few days therefore.

The regulation concernsall member countries of the Union
European, as well as those ofthe European economic area
(EEE)not belonging to the European Union, such as Iceland and
Norway.

From June 2017, it will therefore be possible to use your package in
any other country in this areawithout paying any additional costs linked to
roaming, which until then, caused the bill to rise very quickly.
Attentionall the same, the law indicates that the absence of fees
is only temporary.Beyond a certain period spent
the stranger, the operator will have the right to apply tariffs
special.

French operators are already preparing the ground, with
offers offering the possibility of using SMS and internet abroad during
a few days per year at no extra cost, more and more frequent.

Also, the regulation provides for adrop in roaming prices
applied by operators from April 16, 2016, as a bearing
intermediate before the total elimination of additional costs in 2017. Here are the details
of these reduced rates from 2016:

• €0.05/min for outgoing voice calls
• 0,02 € / SMS
• 0.05 / MB for 3G/4G internet

The absence of roaming charges was one of therecent fights
d’Apple, who even intended to try to make them disappear.
This is therefore the case now for the Europe zone, from there to say that Apple has had
his say...

To see now if the Americans or other regions of the world will follow
this trend of international mobility of users, perhaps quite
special to Europe?
