AT&T adds 4G roaming to UK with EE

AT&T's US customers visiting the UK should benefit from a new 4G roaming arrangement with the EE. The agreement should mean that visiting Americans who are AT&T customers can use their own phones and SIM cards to access average speeds of between 24Mbps and 30Mbps on EE's network, which will cover 160 towns and cities by Dec 25. The AT&T deal is EE's first 4G roaming agreement, and the operator expects to ink similar deals in early 2014. EE said that its UK customers should gain access to 4G networks when travelling abroad by the first half of next year; however, a spokesperson for the company declined to provide details of which countries will be included and the service isn’t expected to come free, or even cheap.
