They almost certainly do charge customers using SIMs from other countries. They ARE reducing costs for people who don't use roaming.
Setting up and maintaining the network is not cheap.
So a UK mobile provider could be expected to set up and provide a mobile network with no money coming in, because everybody is using a SIM from another country?
Why aren't landline call costs the same within a country, never mind between countries?
