Calling a US number while it’s in the U.K. cost £50

[Ronnie234567]

I called a U.S number while the person with the U.S number was within the U.K. However it has apparently cost me £50 for a 50 minute call, I can’t see how I can be charged at the international rate for calling a person less than a mile away from me. Does anyone know if this is correct?

I had a cap on thankfully otherwise it would have cost ever more.

Thanks

Hi @Ronnie234567

if you call an American number regardless of where they are your still going to be paying the international rate.
