Internet Telephony EasyCall is the cheapest solution for international calls in the era of abolished roaming charges. 

With the holiday season in full swing, most of you are probably preparing to travel abroad. In the past, we used to wonder whether to take our phones with us, if they would work in a foreign country, and what our phone bill would look like upon our return. Now, the biggest operators are shouting: “No more roaming”, but does this mean international calls are cheaper? 

On June 15, 2017, the European Union indeed abolished additional charges for roaming. This means that while abroad, we can use our phones under similar conditions as in Poland. However, this does not mean we can easily make international calls. 

According to the definition, roaming is a mechanism in wireless telecommunications networks that allows using services of foreign networks or access points when the subscriber is outside the coverage area of the network with which they have a telecommunications service agreement. Thus, it is using the services of one operator within the range of another network, for example, when traveling abroad. Until now, using international roaming was associated with additional fees. 

After June 15, 2017, when the roaming fee within the EU was abolished, using a Polish number in Spain, for example, you are using roaming and are subject to domestic rates. However, remember that this does not mean that a call from Poland to Spain will also be charged as a domestic call. When you are in Poland, calling a Spanish number from a Polish number is an international call, which will be charged according to your operator’s price list. 

Therefore, remember that roaming still applies. Roaming is a service that allows you to use your phone with a foreign operator’s transmitters while abroad. An international call, however, is a call made from Poland to a foreign number. The latter has always been (highly) charged and remains so.
