In order for a call to go to voicemail, a call has to be made and not answered. At least during that time there is an international phone connection. What happens in the event of somebody answering the call during any leaving of a voicemail? Is the voicemail interrupted and you can speak to the caller? I don't know how the system works. If so, then during that time the connection to the receivers phone has to be constantly active. That would be a set of valid reasons for this charging. If this is the case then perhaps there needs to be an option of not being able to interrupt an active voicemail, thereby avoiding the extra cost.
