However, in regulated areas the price rises, with a difference of 13 euros. The operator has decided to lower the price.
The monthly fee will be lowered from 58 to 50 euros for all those users who have contracted the rate in adjustable areas. Therefore, the difference between the normal rate that applies to the main cities is 5 euros instead of 13. The package costs 45 euros. Pedro Serrahima, director of O2, said in an interview with El País that 40 percent of users are in adjustable zones.
The adjustable zones are those in which there is not so much competition from operators. The National Commission of Markets and Competition (CNMC) regulates these areas and obliges to establish a price to guarantee that the operator can offer services under the same conditions. O2 ensures that customers located in regulated areas will receive compensation with returns of up to 220 euros when it is released. You can read more details here.
