International Call Alert

pyrex — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 13:22:49 GMT

Hi, Just received a text advising me that I had made my first call to an international number.

It was outgoing to an Australian Mobile number twice within a minute of each other.

Each call lasted 3 secs (and I believe it failed to connect).

The Australian Mobile was in the UK at the time.

I was charged £2.50 x 2 for the calls.

Is this correct?

@pyrex

Yes, it is correct.

Regardless of the location of the phone it is still an international number you are calling.

@pyrex If you want to avoid charges like this in the future, you and the person with the Australian mobile should download WhatsApp and call using WiFi. No charges for that.
