Originally posted by d000hg View PostYou never tried to phone the UK from abroad on a land-line?!
A few years ago I remember working with a permie who ha da desk phone in her office in the UK, and a work mobile as well. These were in the days when calling a mobile from a landline was expensive. She used to set her desk phone to forward to her mobile, then when she was working away from home, the family would call her desk phone. Saved them a fortune.
But then I also used to call my girlfriend from my mobile before roaming charges were scrapped. When I worked in Europe, my phone bill was around £500 per month.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Is there not a bit of quid pro quo here... if EU folk come here do they get free roaming?
Free roaming abroad relies on foreign partners willing to do a deal, though it is a shame. Still, if you made your Brexit decision based on how much using 4G would cost abroad you're a fool.I'm alright JackComment

There won't, except temporary blips. All those nice soldiers back from Kabul can run logistics for us!
