Charges for conference call numbers
I am a new T-Moble customer as of August. Today I received a rude shock when I learned that some conference call phone numbers (in the US) are "out of plan" and that T-Mobil will charge me extra...

AT&T actually started blocking people from connecting to these numbers and continue to add to the list. There is a legal battle going on over it.

Verizon has been rumored to start charging or cutting off depending on the outcome of the verdicts.
T-Mobile - looks like this has been a long-term issue. What's the fix? It's been about 2 years since it was first reported here. If my boss is already paying for the conference line, how can YOU or any other entity charge additionally?
