The growth in Cyprus Telecom Market has been driven by increasing population, communication service, and rising adoption of smartphone services. The growth would be further supported by Regulatory authorities, which play a major role in adopting a 5G network in the country.

5G network plays a key role in enabling autonomous cars, and customer services including physical infrastructure to contractual agreements. However, 5G network adoption may face hurdles from public authorities and organizations as 5G network might lead to technical challenges and pose a threat to public safety and health. The key technical challenge for a challenge for adopting 5G’s bands tends to have limited range and lower penetration rate, which hampered the pilot tests. Besides technical issues, adapting issues such as overheating of some 5G devices while using may lead to the slower adoption of 5G network services.

Cyprus roaming

Cyprus, as member of EU, implement “roam like at home” rules which mean that when you use your mobile phone while travelling outside your home country in any EU country you don’t have to pay any additional roaming charges.

You benefit from these rules when calling (to mobile and fixed phones), sending text messages (SMS) and using data services while abroad. These rules also apply when receiving calls or texts while roaming even if the person you are calling is using a different service provider.

You pay exactly the same price for using these services when travelling in the EU as you would if you were at home.

Mobile users must be aware that outside EU countries, on the ships, cruisers, planes etc. there are still roaming charges and they can be very high. We can help you to avoid them and find best solutions for your needs. Find best roaming solution for Cyprus or any other country: Alertify now.
