Call forwarding whilst roaming

Thanks for all the responses and sorry I am only getting back to this thread now. In the end I didn't actually trigger the forward as I didn't have as much net access as I had hoped. Good to know for next time though. I would never have thought that setting up the trigger would work whilst roaming as if I were at home. I am still not 100% sure though!

The initial doubt came about as even though I have a plan where I do not pay for incoming calls whilst roaming in Europe, I do pay for unanswered calls that forward to my voicemail By the above explanations this should be free as well shouldn't it? I mean my voicemail box is in the UK and has a standard UK number. So for example whilst I am here in Spain, and have an INCOMING voicemail, I get charged for is an OUTGOING call from Spain to UK. However shouldn't it just be charged as UK to UK? The irony is that if I actually pick up the call before it diverts to voicemail, I pay nothing!
