MADRID, May 7 (Reuters) - Spain's telecoms regulator said onTuesday it was studying fining Vodafone up to 2 millioneuros ($2.6 million) for failing to adhere to European roamingtariffs.
The CMT said in a resolution published on its website thatVodafone automatically gave customers travelling in Europe a 4euro per day roaming tariff under one of its packages instead ofEurope-approved tariffs that establish different maximum fees.
The European rules establish a ceiling of charges per minutefor calls, for example.
The CMT said Vodafone must immediately stop automaticallygiving new customers the roaming plan.
Vodafone declined to comment. Company sources said its rateswere better than the European tariffs and it would givecustomers until May 17 to decide whether they wanted to continuewith the 4 euro deal.
