Don't actually know whether I was charged for the call or not as it was
earlier this month and I won't get the bill until the beginning of
January.
It's a new tactic that I have developed over the last few weeks and will
have to wait to find out. Having said this I don't leave the receiver off
for very long so hopefully won't be charged too much for the calls even if
the do reverse the charges.

I've not used transfer charge calling since at school, then, obviously,
being well back in the sixties, the operator checked with the receiving
caller whether they would accept the call? Do I take it certainly in your
case, this did not happen?
I'm sure the recippient must be given the opportunity to decline, meaning
either a human needs to react or a button choice made via menus on their
phone.
