In France they didn't, what do these "European" plans do? Since you are legally allowed to use any local plan when you are abroad (except if your plan is less than 3,85€/GB indeed, then your operator can decide to give you less data or charge you more within this limit).

I'm just using my regular 10€/40GB plan whenever I am abroad and it works fine.

> In France they didn't The reason being it was already more expensive.

Nothing stops you getting cheap plan from Eastern Europe and use it in west (where cost of operations are higher).

Hmm, law does stop you from doing that, as you need to actually live in the place you subscribe to your plan.

Also, I'm not sure it's that cheaper in the East, I can't really find plans that are significantly cheaper than 40 GB per month for 10 euros.

50 GB in Poland is 100 zloty with Orange for example, so 23 euros.
