The cancellation of mobile phone roaming charges Vodafone loss strong reaction

In EU countries from domestic tourists and businessmen to answer the phone will no longer need to pay fee. The good news comes from the EU's information society and media Commissioner Vivian - March 28th announced the new regulations on mobile phone charges.

MS Redding's new mobile phone charges were supported by EU leaders last week. Redding said, roaming fee is actually to go abroad, whether it is a businessman or a student, the punishment, the domestic market is invalid."

Redding 6 months ago for consumers to open a website, data show that the telecom operators and not as they had promised to lower roaming charges in Italy, using the British mobile phone roaming charges up to 4.92 euros (about 45 yuan). Redding's goal is to reduce the current roaming fee of 95%, almost equivalent to cancel roaming charges.

According to Redding, some European telecom operators have endorsed the draft. But the European Association of telecommunications network operators (ETNO) warned that it would resolutely oppose. Europe's largest mobile phone operators - while it may be the biggest loss after the adjustment of the rules of the loss of Wo Dafeng (Vodafone) 28, said the market price has begun to decline, strongly urged the EU to intervene.

France Orange Mobile Corporation and British Virgin Mobile (VirginMobile) declined to comment.

"I've been warning, that's enough," Redding told the guardian. "There's plenty of time to adjust, but it doesn't work...... I have come to the conclusion from the web site, there is no big change in the price, and some even improved, and the only change is some package service, but because it is an additional fee items, consumers do not choose."

She added: "the price is still too high, far from the cost margin. There is no transparency in prices, which is a heavy expense for businesses, especially small businesses and new companies."
