"In perfect synchrony with the start of the holiday season, roaming fees will be falling as of July. One example is the prices for Internet use, which will be capped at EUR 0.70/MB, and EUR 0.50/MB from 2014. This will mean that smartphones and tablets can be used without fear of incurring incredible costs. The plans for ‘more competition in the mobile communications market’ are particularly pleasing. As of 2014, customers will be able to find the cheapest provider and buy their roaming services separately, even from foreign providers. Every time you cross a border, your mobile phone will automatically switch to the network of the provider you have selected, while your phone number remains the same. Roaming charges are the only area in the EU where costs are incurred simply by crossing a border. When I consider the wage and social dumping that has resulted from the opening up of the eastern European labour markets, I can see that the internal market has not always only brought benefits. What we have here, finally, is a truly sensible measure, and I therefore voted in favour of the report."@en1
