Amendment 41 #
Proposal for a regulation – amending act
Recital 32
(32) The high level of retail prices for data roaming services remains a concern and indicates that competition in these services is still not sufficient However, unlike the case for voice and SMS roaming services, competitive constraints exist at retail level, as roaming customers have alternative means of accessing data services when abroad, such as public wireless access to the internet, without associated numbering constraints. It would therefore be premature at this stage to regulate prices at the retail level. Furthermore, any roaming network connection should be established with the user's consent. Accordingly, there should be no roaming data downloading, including software updating and e-mail retrieval, without the user's prior consent or request, unless otherwise requested by the user if he does not wish to enjoy such protection.
