China Mobile to cut international roaming fees from Saturday

China Mobile will cut international roaming fees by 82 percent on average from Saturday, the world’s biggest mobile carrier said yesterday.

China Mobile users who travel abroad in more than 80 countries and regions will pay from 3 to 9 yuan (US$1.47) for three megabytes international roaming capacity since January 25, compared with previous 16.7 yuan.

“We are trying to avoid wild concerns on bills of high international roaming fees,” said Xing Hongtao, vice manager of market price division of China Mobile. “Roaming charges will be implemented with a 30-yuan-cap in the countries like US and Singapore.”

Fees of international Wi-Fi WLAN roaming in Hong Kong and US will be down to 6 yuan per day, compared with 20 yuan now.

Consumers have for long complained about pricy international roaming charges.

At present, China Mobile has more than 760 million users.
