Re: Hardly a surprise
Actually, I think we will return to the days when business users got severely trodden on by their boss if they had roaming charges on their bill. "Even if it was only £1, our policy is that you don't use roaming data on your work phone except in business emergencies. What was the emergency?"
In the company I worked for, I noticed a complete change of ways of working for frequent travellers in Europe after the roaming charges went: they left their phones connected all evening and responded to messages after work. I think it will return to the days when you were lucky if they checked their email when they got back to their hotel room at night - and some were rather the worse for it!
Of course, Sales, and Executives, ignored the cost but everyone else wasted a load of time saving a penny here and a penny there in roaming charges because it was an easy thing for managers to manage!
