Roaming charges ... Vodafone to abolish


It has been reported that from 1 June, Vodafone will be aboloshing roaming charges for consumer and business customers. This means that holidaymakers can text, talk and send picture messages for the same price as they would in the UK.

Customers looking to call home for less while on holiday should sign up to the Vodafone Passport service before travelling.

However, on 1 July roaming charges across all networks are due to fall which is as a result of EU ruling.
