Not call, dude: UK govt says guaranteed surcharge-free EU roaming will end after Brexit transition period. Brits left at the mercy of networks

"It will only take one company, probably one of the smaller ones to be forced in to raising roaming charges, for every other company to follow. Expecting companies to give away something free of charge when they are allowed to charge for it is somewhat naive in my view. It might not happen immediately, but roaming charges will return."

On the other hand, 3 were offering free roaming, and not just in the EU, well before everyone else was forced to do so. We may not keep blanket roaming from all operators, but there are likely to be at least some options that keep free roaming because it's a potentially big feature to advertise to attract customers.
