I suppose that's where we disagree. I really don't see the difference between unlimited data with a throttle after exceeding a certain amount, vs. "unlimited" home broadband as it was sold a few years ago which worked exactly the same.

AFAIK Vodafone don't limit your 4G when abroad.
No, they just charge you ridiculous rates when you exceed your allowance.

Then again, nobody throttled overseas data until the EU regulations forced them to put prices down. Just a few years ago everyone allowed full speeds 24/7 because it was in their own interests to rip you off more. £6 per megabyte? Sure you can have 3 megabytes per second! No problem! Say hello to your £100 per minute phone bill!
