Telcos Lower Roaming Charges, Complying With EU Caps
Hungarian mobile telecommunications service providers have complied with European Union caps on roaming charges and modified their general contract conditions, the National Media and Infocommunications Authority (NMHH) said. From April 30, roaming charges in the EU were capped at the price for domestic service plus 0.05 euros (HUF 19.2) per minute for voice calls and per megabyte for data transfer.

Charges for taking calls were capped at the domestic price plus 0.0114 euros (HUF 4.4) per minute and charges for text messages were limited to the domestic price plus 0.02 euros (HUF 7.7). From June 15, 2017, roaming charges will be eliminated entirely in the EU.
