What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Huh. I just discovered that while I was in the UK, when people left voicemails for me (like Hec's ass), I was charged for those minutes even though I never actually checked the messages. Luckily, T-Mobile will be crediting my account since I've been with them forever and no one ever told me about that.

WTF?

It makes a certain kind of sense because the caller had to use the local tower to leave the message. So it was as if I'd answered the phone and let them talk.
Next time, I can call and ask them to disable my voicemail while I'm gone. The same thing happened in Budapest, but the customer service rep didn't have that explanation for me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Congrats, msbelle!

Our wings are not tired.
P-C, that is the stupidest thing I've heard in a while. No, they did NOT call a UK tower. They called here and your VM was probably on a server somewhere in India. That's hogwash. You should not be charged for time unless you're actually engaging the phone.

Did it ring in the UK?

Did you have the phone on and hit "ignore" or anything when the phone call came in? *That* might be your problem.
ETA: yeah, ita, I thought he meant he had the phone turned off and the calls went right to VM.
