Phone network provider Three has today reintroduced daily mobile roaming charges for customers holidaying in dozens of European destinations.
Those with Three will now pay £2 per day to use their UK text, calls and data allowance when in the EU.
Those affected by the roaming charges include pay monthly or SIM-only customers who signed up, or renewed their contract with Three from October 1, 2021 onwards.

If you joined the mobile network provider before this date, and you haven’t upgraded your contract since, you won’t be charged until you sign a new deal with Three. The new roaming charges won't affect pay-as-you-go users either.
According to the Mirror, Three has also ditched its free “Go Roam” service for certain destinations outside of Europe - including Australia, New Zealand and the USA - with an eye-watering £5 daily charge now in place for some countries.
Mobile firms were previously banned from charging extra fees to use your UK allowance while holidaying in the EU - however this rule no longer applies now the Brexit transition period is over.
A spokesperson for Three said: “The new charge ensures that customers are clear on what they will pay when using their phone in another country and only those who roam will pay for the service.
“It will also ensure that we can continue investing in our UK network.”
