Fiona Hall commented: "These new rates have come just in time for families heading off on their summer holidays and will help to take the sting out of those shock mobile phone bills. Thanks to the new cap on data usage, checking your emails, social networks or GPS maps while abroad in another EU country will no longer be prohibitively expensive."
Continuing Ms Hall said: "Thousands of Brits heading to Croatia, which joined the EU today, will be able to take advantage of a ten times reduction in roaming fees compared to last year. But there is still some way to go. Liberal Democrats in the European Parliament are leading the fight to end roaming charges in Europe once and for all, and we will be meeting with EU Digital Agenda Commissioner Neelie Kroes this week to see how we can take this forward."
