UK tourists face mobile phone roaming charges post-Brexit, analysis says
Leaked document says EU ban on roaming charges due to come into effect in June will not apply to UK travelers

British tourists will have to pay mobile phone operators’ roaming charges when they travel in the EU after Brexit, according to the European parliament committee that helped pioneer the legislation.

Despite a ban on the practice, holidaymakers and business travellers will face hefty bills if they use their phone within the EU from 2019, unless the British government strikes a favourable deal with the union.
