You have to have International Dialing allowed on your line because akin this type of call requires that you pay per minute you are on the call. Customer service should have been able to help you with that. You can try 1-800-711-8300 to get to Global Support. They may be more helpful.

How funny I cannot call out international and I am paying for the service since 6/8/2021.! That includes 800 numbers so the support number does me absolutely no good. Nor can my boyfriend who has the same service. This is the first time we have not had service for international calling. Very frustrating. I am now telling all my friends and family to use whatsapp to contact me. That is the only thing that works.!!!! $10/day very poor process
