Kommission untersucht Roaminggebühren deutscher Anbieter[en][fr

Erschienen: Freitag 11. Februar 2005   

Die Kommission hat eine Untersuchung der Preise eingeleitet, die von zwei deutschen Mobiltelefonanbietern verlangt werden wenn Kunden ausländischer Anbieter in Deutschland telefonieren.

According to the Commission's competition authorities, German mobile phone companies Vodafone and T-Mobile are overcharging customers of foreign operators when they make mobile calls when visiting Germany. 

The Commission has therefore started an investigation into these 'roaming' prices. If found guilty, both companies could be fined up to 10% of their annual turnover.

The Commission started a similar case against UK operators Vodafone and O2 in July 2004.

'Roaming' is the facility that mobile phone subscribers have to use their phones while travelling abroad.
