Expert Opinion

Calls that keep charging you $16 while you're abroad sound frustrating. The pattern in these reports points to automated political survey robocalls that often prompt you to press a number for a poll. Since they’re generally non‑essential, the safest move is to let the call go to voicemail, then add the number to your phone’s block list or use a carrier‑provided spam‑filter service. Register the line with the national Do Not Call registry, and if you notice foreign‑rate charges, contact your carrier to dispute them. Reporting repeated offenders to the FCC can also help curb the nuisance.
