Internation dial tone when In UK

I’ve had two calls recently where the caller has advised they’ve had an international dial tone when calling me, making it look like I’m abroad.

I’ve been at home on both occasions connected to WiFi calling.

Any idea why this is happening?

Hi @Bradleyu280

Welcome to the community.

Without giving your exact position away, are you near an international border, or near the coast?

Chris

Hi Chris,  

not near any borders, inland by some considerable distance

OK, thanks. Have you been abroad recently at all, @Bradleyu280?

Everybody calling says they are getting an abroad tone and I’m not abroad? 

Not been abroad

That's strange @Bradleyu280.

I would love to see if we can help further.

When you dial out do you get a normal ring tone?

Hi @Gina_vessey.

Where are you currently?

Is this happening when other people call you?

Jon

When I dial out it’s the normal dial tone.

 

It happened when I was called from a BT & Tesco mobile.

Thanks for checking @Bradleyu280

Is this only when you are in one location connected to WiFi Calling?

If yes, have you tried disconnecting or are you connected due to low signal?

Katie 🙂
