Brexit is now successfully over and done with, so thank you to all who voted for it.

Let's not forget that the Brexit vote was about the principle of good (the people) versus evil (arrogant politicians) and not about selfish individual financial concerns.

Goodness has triumphed and now rather than harping about Brexit we need to concentrate on that other great evil of our times, China.

Boycott Chinese products!

WTF!!!

Not abide by any "fair usage" policy?
This sort of thing is in operation with so-called "unlimited" data and call packages; they're often not "unlimited".

Services are already being impacted:
Cribbed from an expat site:

Our Free mobile does not allow calls to UK .
I can no longer get BT television through sky or even online through VPN.​

expat site:

**** em. They don't want to live here but want all the free stuff.

**** em. They don't want to live here but want all the free stuff.

BT and SKY are subscription sites.
There's a difference between having an option for a paid for service, and that option simply being unavailable anymore.
BBc (iPlayer) has never been available (even via VPN recently), so that is an income stream missed by BBC.

Loss of services outlet = loss of income.
Only the 3rd day of Brexit, and the other days have been also been holidays so far.

Read your own post.

"BT television though sky"
That's not a loss of subscription.

"Our Free (sic) mobile does not allow calls to UK". Presumably you mean loss of free calls to UK on Three?

Sky closed down in August, lack of customers.

The service was available to expats, now it's not. That's a loss of service, not just subscription.

I mean loss of service options.

You are funny....I assume this is irony

You are right, Brexit was about enabling Tory govt to deregulate for self interest.....it is 1000% about individual financial concern.

Like I said, **** the ex-pats who don't want to live here but want all the benefits.
