"The company is obliged to provide financial limits to the person wishing to receive roaming services before arriving in a foreign country. According to the amendment, an obligatory financial limit will be set in agreement with the customer. In the case of a limit expire, the service will be suspended and no additional debt will be accrued to the customer”, -the Communications Commission declares.
