Hello. I have recently come back off holiday and there is a charge for me receiving scam/phishing calls when abroad. How do I turn off receiving calls on my apple phone when I am abroad?  Thanks.

Use airplane mode and turn on wifi so you can still use apps when on a wifi network.

Following the advice from @MI5 Also turn off your Voicemail before you leave otherwise there can be a charge for diverting the call back to the UK if the phone at some point has detected where you are.

This is not O2 and we are all customers here similar to yourself and cannot answer account type queries.
