Orange changed their call setup procedure quite a while back now, if a call is sent to a foreign roaming network and is "busied" to answerphone, then the call is never actually released from the UK. To put it another way, unless the user actually answers the incoming call - that is the point when incoming call charges start to apply.

This has been "BAU standard procedure" in Orange's core network for as long as I can remember - I would think it has been carried across to EE.
