‌ New rules that were introduced last October mean that mobile providers must now notify customers when they start roaming while abroad. They will also have to notify customers of any "fair

elsewhere. Take a look at how many minutes, texts and how much data you currently use, so you can find similar plans that suit your needs.

You may find you're actually paying too much right now for allowances you're not using. If you've found a cheaper deal, you can switch to this if you're out of contract. Alternatively, you

may want to haggle down your current provider.

near the end of your existing contract, or when a price rise has been announced.
