I understand that calling my voicemail from overseas will incur a charge BUT surely what they've told me can't be correct.
Even if my phone is switched off while I'm out of the country 'the system will know where you are' and I'll be charged for every voicemail left.
Anyone got any experience of this?

Perhaps T-Mobile's network is set up to charge when you have your phone switched on but also have 'Call Divert all calls to voicemail' activated.
I switched my voicemail off specifically because of this.
Because once I went abroad using a T-Mobile sim card and when I diverted all calls to voicemail,I had £30 because i hadn't made any calls at that point and just an hour after, recieved a voicemail lasting approx a minute and a half and before i called voicemail, my balance showed £28.11
