I noticed this morning that my sons Amazon kindle fire content no longer plays the video content - gets an error about jurisdictionNowTV UK and Amazon Prime UK immediately stopped working outside of the UK on 1st January 2021.
Oh I'm sure the mobile operators won't follow suit asap with roaming charges coming back in
So much winning!

It's up to the partner carriers in the EU whether they decide to start hiking the roaming fees Vodafone and the like have to pay for UK customers. The UK carriers will obviously pass on the cost to consumers.Roaming charges in the EU are bound to come back, but they will time it so they don't look too bad. The Vodafone position pretty much suggests as much:
"We have no current plans to re-introduce roaming charges in EU countries following the UK’s departure from the European Union."
I give it 6 months before they're re-introduced.

and of course if any uk carriers decide to put fees on EU customers its likley they will do the same in return... probably nobody wants to make the first move but at some point its probably gonna happenIt's up to the partner carriers in the EU whether they decide to start hiking the roaming fees Vodafone and the like have to pay for UK customers.

Sarcasm dude. The import duty alone on one purchase from Europe has almost cost me as much as my annual EU contribution already. Not to mention its still stuck in Liepzig...Brexit bonus???
You believe that do you....

It sums up why the Remain campaign failed to resonate. After 40 years of EC/EUmembership, many people took all the positives for granted and thought Brexit was just adding some gains to (or removing some annoyances from) the status quo. And there was no way to disprove all the “Project Fear” smears until we actually left and had to experience these issues.
Yes this is all the remain camp’s fault
How does one feel sorry for someone like this?
Why not laugh out loud & point?You don't. You mostly try not to snigger.

That's what we get for leaving the EU, to be fair.fecking paywalls
Well, one good thing that has come out of this is that this will serve as a stern reminder to all the remaining EU members for the next year or two of the cost of leaving the EUIt sums up why the Remain campaign failed to resonate.

The amount of extra work brexit has caused me I want to ban everyone on here who voted for it
Same. I run an export transport company and the work is relentless, it’s caused absolute chaos for us and every one of our customers like we knew it would.The amount of extra work brexit has caused me I want to ban everyone on here who voted for it
I understand that Vodafone at least have said that they intend to enforce their fair usage policies, which won't be a problem for holidaymakers but will for those of us living abroad permanently - I think the rules are no more than 60-odd days in 6 months. I have both UK and Italian phone contracts as you can't really give an Italian business a UK number to call you on.It's up to the partner carriers in the EU whether they decide to start hiking the roaming fees Vodafone and the like have to pay for UK customers.

That eel exporter who regretted voting Brexit? This is his interview a few years ago with UKIP supporting Brexit.
The amount of lies that goes on in that interview.
It’s bollox, especially when you factor in the additional customs requirements to purchase from the uk now.Belarussia
One thing that puzzles is me why Brexiteers think they will suddenly penetrate markets they struggled to reach before.

considering how left wing the forum is, it won’t be many...
However, in all seriousness, the referendum was 4.5 years ago. It’s not the people who voted for it you channel your frustration at, it’s those who implemented that direction, and the parting of ways. On both sides of the channel.
