Ban mobile phone companies from reintroducing roaming charges in EU countries

Rejected 18 signatures

What the petition asks

Avoid companies taking advantage of the UK leaving the EU to charge British people more. Early in the Brexit debate assurances were made that leaving the EU would not affect roaming charges in Europe. Don’t allow these companies to undermine the public’s view of Brexit with this ‘penalty charge’.
Legislate to correct this omission from our Brexit implementation.
