¡Hola!
Welcome to our Support Community! Having to dial extra digits just to initiate an international call can be frustrating and I'm sorry it's causing distress to users. This is a feature that cannot be disabled at this time but the request for the option has been forwarded.
I am having the same problem since the end of October 2018 and it is costing me extra. Please see details of my issue below---
Hi, I've been having a problem dialing international numbers in the Caribbean (in Miami). Since the end of October, whenever I dial a number in the Caribbean, I get a message that comes on saying "to complete this call, please dial 34" (for example). It's always the same message with the two numbers at the end changing with each new call. The problem is that it blocks me from making a direct call (though I am dialing properly) and still charges me for the time it takes to the play the message and ring the number BEFORE the number has even connected. At other times it just drops the call after playing the message and you dial the two numbers as directed. Can someone help? I've been given the run-around from the T-Mobile tech office in the Philippines being given answers from dial 011 (how you dial the UK and not the Caribbean) and it's a collect call (which makes absolutely no sense) as answers. I also spent an 1 1/2 on phone with no resolution. Completely fed-up and this point and needing help.
