The fixed allowance is the same within the EU. It's not "no roaming charges", but it is that you must not be charged for occasional fair-use roaming (which is quite a lot of roaming). They can still ban you from roaming if you are living in a different country from your contract provider - you're not allowed to buy a contract in Slovakia and then move to Denmark.

You'd be surprised: I picked up a French SIM when I was on holiday there years ago on a very competitive package (including on roaming)... it's still working and I have been living full-time abroad.

Is it "allowed"? Probably not. What are they gonna do about it, cut me off? Well godspeed and thanks for the years of cheap data.


The idea is they don’t want people from the Netherlands wrapping and reselling Romanian data and cutting the bottom out of the market.
