Data Roaming Spend Caps and Notifications

1.     Vodafone is required by Regulation to offer a Data Roaming Spend Caps and Notifications service to help its customers to control costs when accessing email or the internet while roaming. Throughout these terms and conditions, the ‘Customer’ relates to the individual subscriber to whom the SIM card is linked.
   
2.     There are two data roaming spend caps for prepaid services and three data roaming spend caps for bill pay services.
   Prepaid
   •    The default spend caps are €50 and €100 excluding vat. The €50 (ex. VAT) default spend cap applies unless a customer opts out of it.  If a customer opts out of the €50 (ex. VAT) default spend cap an additional spend cap of €100 (ex. VAT) will apply. If a customer opts out of the €100 (ex. VAT) spend cap, then no spend cap will apply.
   BillPay (Consumer and Business customers)
   •    The default spend caps are €50, €100, and €300 excluding vat. The €50 (ex. VAT) default spend cap applies unless a customer opts out of it.  If a customer opts out of the €50 ex vat default spend cap an additional spend cap of €100 (ex. VAT) will apply. If a customer opts out of the €100 ex vat default spend cap an additional spend cap of €300 (ex. VAT) will apply. If a customer opts out of the €300 (ex. VAT) default spend cap, then no spend cap will apply.
   
3.     All spend cap calculations are based on roaming data usage in a single monthly billing period. At the start of the next billing period, accumulation towards the spend cap shall be reset to zero.  For any customer on a data roaming price plan, the fixed cost of the data roaming price plan as well as any out-of-bundle or per MB costs (i.e., the total spend to date in the monthly billing period) will count towards the calculation of the spend cap for that month. Usage accumulated shall be reset to zero at the start of the next billing period. For Pay as you go Customers, the data roaming spend caps are reset on the 1st of the month.
   
4.     When a customer accesses data abroad, they will receive a warning message when their data usage is near 80% of the applicable spend cap and again when they have reached the data roaming limit set by the applicable spend cap.  The customer shall then be barred from data roaming for the rest of that billing period unless they choose to opt out of the applicable spend cap for that month. Both notifications will inform the customer how to opt out of the applicable spend cap to continue usage beyond the cap. Customers will receive a text message to the inbox of their mobile phone or to the SMS inbox of their mobile broadband software. Older mobile broadband devices may not have the software capability to be able to receive pop up SMS notifications. In these circumstances, customers must go into the SMS inbox of their mobile broadband device to view the notification. If an inbound text message bar is in place, then the end user will not receive notifications.
   
5.     Upon reaching a spend cap the customer will be barred from data roaming for the remainder of the applicable monthly billing period unless they choose to extend usage beyond the spend cap. When this cap has been reached, data that is in the course of being downloaded will be lost.
   
6.     Vodafone's data roaming spend cap and other notifications are reliant on a customer's ability to receive and send text messages from the device being used. Any customer who reaches the applicable data roaming spend cap via use of his/her iPad, can opt out of the applicable spend cap, or call Vodafone customer care to have the spend cap lifted.
   
7.     When a customer reaches the applicable spend cap, the customer will receive a notification indicating the procedure to be followed if the customer wishes to continue provision of the data roaming services. Should a customer choose to exceed the applicable spend cap, that customer shall accept the risk that he/she may accumulate significant charges within their monthly billing period at the applicable out-of-bundle per MB rate.
   
8.      Vodafone reserves the right to modify the data roaming service at any time for technical, operational, regulatory, or legal reasons. Vodafone may suspend or vary the data roaming service without prior notice for repair or maintenance, or for any other valid reason.
   
9.      A customer can at any stage opt for or remove a data roaming spend cap in which case, the change will be made free of charge within one working day of receipt of the request. All other terms and conditions of the customer’s data roaming plan will remain unaffected and there will be no penalty or restriction involved.
   
10.     Instructions to opt in or out of the financial limits are outlined below. Notifications on how to exceed these spend caps are also sent to customers, provided they are opted in to receiving data spend caps and notifications.

22. To avoid unexpected data usage while roaming due to automatic updates and connections it is recommended that these be disabled whilst travelling and manual connections be made when needed. Please refer to handset manual or application settings for detailed instructions

23. Service charges while roaming do not include event charges such as charges for download of ringtones or games, and do not include the use of any data services for which a special charge is made.

24. RED Roaming is designed to be used by customers normally domiciled in the Republic of Ireland (RoI). To avail of RED Roaming, pay as you go customers must be active on the Vodafone Ireland network during the previous three months. Customers who do not have ongoing usage on the Vodafone Ireland network will be deemed to be in breach of these terms and will result in removal of RED Roaming from their account and/or termination of service at Vodafone’s discretion.

25. Vodafone reserves the right to withdraw the RED Roaming offer at any time.

26. From time to time Vodafone may modify the standard settings and/or features of this Service in order to offer additional value to the Service. Such changes might include measures such as increasing your data allowance size. Vodafone may change its Service delivery methods or platforms from time to time which may require the Customer to change Equipment and/or Equipment settings to continue to avail of the Services.

EC Regulation No. 544/2009 (the “Regulation”) requires that customers are kept adequately informed of the charges that will apply when using data roaming services so that customers are able to monitor and control how much they spend when using mobile data services abroad. Specific actions are required of Vodafone, as a mobile service provider to ensure that this is the case: 

• Every time a customer is roaming, he / she will be informed by an automatic message from Vodafone that he / she is roaming. As part of this, the customer will be given their basic tariff information on the relevant data roaming charges applicable for roaming in the European Union country concerned, except where the customer has notified Vodafone that he / she does not want to receive this information. Where a customer has so notified Vodafone of this, the customer also has the right to reverse that decision and ask Vodafone to provide that information service again in the future free of charge. 

• The Regulation requires Vodafone to make available to all their data roaming customers a facility which provides information on their data roaming spend.  This must be available free of charge and guarantees that without a customer’s explicit consent, their accumulated data roaming spend over a monthly billing period does not exceed a specified financial limit. €50 per month (€61.50 including VAT) is the default financial limit.  This means that it is applicable to all customers who have not opted out of it. In addition to the €50 limit (€61.50 including VAT), Vodafone may offer additional limits. Vodafone offers an additional financial limit of €300 (€369 including VAT).  Customers will not be able to continue data roaming when they reach the specified financial limit during a billing period unless they choose to choose to opt out of the applicable financial limit for that month. 

• Customers must also be informed when their usage is near to and when they have reached the agreed financial limit (for example by an SMS message, an e-mail or a pop-up window on the computer). The alert message will advise customers of the procedure to be followed if they wish to continue data roaming and the cost associated with each individual unit that may be consumed.  Customers have the right to require Vodafone to stop sending such messages and the right at any time and free of charge to require Vodafone to provide the service again in the future. 

• Regardless of a customer’s data roaming price plan , they always have the right to opt for or remove a financial limit for data roaming, without affecting in any way the other terms and conditions of their plan. The limit must be set or removed within one working day of receipt of the request, free of charge.   

• Customers must also be informed of the risk of automatic and uncontrolled data connection and download. Please see [insert link], for more information on how to avoid uncontrolled consumption of data roaming services on your Smartphone. 

• Instructions to opt in or out of the financial limits are outlined below and are also sent to customers in the notifications he/she receives when abroad: 

TO OPT OUT: 

For the €50 spend cap (€61.50 including VAT): 

Text ‘NO EU CAP’ TO 50193 

For the €300 spend cap (€369 including VAT): 

Text ‘NO UPPER LIMIT <PIN>’ to 50193 

The PIN you need to insert is the last 4 digits of your customer number
