(Telecompaper) The Belgian and Luxembourg telecom regulators have reached an agreement aimed at ending roaming surcharges for mobile users in the two countries. The agreement will allow a Belgian phone number to be linked to a Luxembourg network, ending the national distinctions for the IMSI and phone number. This will allow Luxembourg operators to offer services to customers in Belgium based on existing roaming agreements in Luxembourg, and Belgian operators will be able to do the same with Luxembourg numbers. According to a statement from Belgian regulator BIPT, the agreement was brought about after a request from Luxembourg operator Join Experience. Join, a joint venture started by Post Luxembourg and Join Wireless, plans to launch soon an offer for voice, messaging and data services at the same prices in Belgium and Luxembourg. It already offers plans with domestic and EU roaming at the same price.
