Vodafone has changed its data roaming tariffs for European customers and travellers – allowing European customers to pay a per day fee to be able to use mobile data whilst roaming at domestic prices.
There are two options: the first allows customers to pay €2 per day, for which they can take their domestic data plan abroad. Alternatively, customers can select to take a price plan which includes data roaming within their monthly domestic package.
The new plans are being made available in Vodafone’s major European markets during November and December 2010 and across the Company’s entire European footprint by summer 2011.
Vodafone will back the new plans with a marketing campaign captioned ‘feel free to use your smartphone abroad.’
All consumer and business customers on the daily offer will be able to access domestic price plans in Vodafone’s European countries plus France, Switzerland, Belgium and Austria. Business monthly customers will be able to include data roaming across the whole of Europe within their domestic monthly package and consumer monthly customers can use the new price plans inVodafone countries as well as France, Switzerland, Belgium and Austria.
Vodafone’s European countries include: Czech Republic, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Malta, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Spain, and the UK.
