DETAILED STEPS

International call blocking

Choose My voicemail & phone features and then Phone Features.
On the Phone Features tab, scroll to Outgoing calls.
Select International Call Blocking.
- Select ON to turn on international call blocking.
- Select OFF to turn off international call blocking.
