I know data roaming charges where to be dropped in Europe from 15th June. To the many funsters who have been to Europe since then have the phone companies lived up to their promises?

They have no option as I think it was an EU directive.

As I posted a few days ago on another thread the head of Vodafone uk has publicly stated that Vodafone will not re introduce roaming charges because it does not make commercial sense for them. I suspect that other networks will not re introduce roaming fees either as they will not want to be loosing customers to other networks and there is very little chance of all networks agreeing to re introduce charges at the same level and at the same point on time.It was....but thus will no longer apply to UK airtime providers from the date of the UK leaving the EU.
They may or may not continue the no-roaming-charges policy thereafter, but that'll be their commercial choice.
My strong prediction is that they'll re-impose them to at least some degree on UK SIM holders, as the lack of them hurts their revenue.

If you don't have a lot of data to play with, turn off updates on the iPad / lappy. Other than that, they shouldn't use up more except that you might do more with them that you might not on your phone eg watch YouTube or whateverIf I tether my iPad or laptop to my phone will this use up my data quicker?

Do you still need a VPN to watch I player etc?They seem to have stop throttling to. I was streaming on my three sim with virtually no buffering at all. we was able to stream poldark on bbc i player twice. radio worked fine every time. this was not the case before the EU ended roaming when I could only occasionally get the radio to work. My only complaint was my giff gaff phone while working fine, did not get 4g when I was roaming. My wifes vodaphone ipad did get 4g no problem.

Tethering to a laptop will use more than tethering with a tablet as there is much more data downloaded when using a laptop.If I tether my iPad or laptop to my phone will this use up my data quicker?
iplayer seems to be working for me (in Spain, Vodafone). where does this site Broken Link Removed say you are @TM59 ? Says London for me.Just tried iplayer tells me I am out of uk. I guess vpn still required
