    I don't know if it's irony or not but it's certainly strange that it's cheaper to send a text or make a call (on certain tariffs) anywhere in the EU except in the UK!

    'If you've bought a data bundle from your provider you'll automatically be opted out of the £49 limit.'
    I don't like the way the providers opt you out of the warnings if you take a data bundle abroad.
    Seems completely wrong, the sensible thing to most people would be to get a data bundle package when going abroad. But by doing so you are leaving yourself wide open to the providers automatically charging you again and again when you go over your bundle. They make the bundles quite small and it is very easy to go over the amount. If you use more than your bundle they don't stop, they just automatically renew the bundle, and can do this 10 times a day if they want.
