How to disable International calling but keep free Mex / Can?

We have the unlimited plans with free Mexico and Canada calls.

How can we disable all other International calling or at least those countries that require more than 10 digits?

doesn't seem to allow this. This Verizon FAQ didn't seem to work with our plan either

How do I block calls to international numbers?

If you have an international calling feature on your account, you can remove it from the Change Your Planpage in My Verizon, to disable outgoing calls to international numbers. However, you can still call those countries that follow the 10-digit North American numbering plan. You'll be charged at our International Voice rates while in the US.

You have the option of blocking outgoing international calls with the Smart Family Feature. Here's more information regarding this feature:

We have to pay for a feature to try to prevent wasting money on accidental international calls?? Verizon should have a better solution.

Exactly-OR is Verizon counting on us to make international calls accidentally so that they can shell out money from us? LOL. This is outrageous! Stop it and provide a way for FREE to add "international call block"

This is outrageous! You want to scam customers into paying for international calls they make by mistake. And we have to pay to disable this risk? Shame on you Verizon.

Totally with you. Seems deliberate and not in line with values that Verizon propagates

Can you please provide steps to block all international numbers except Mex/Can from Smart Family? I do not see any option.

Does your account have International Calling feature added in addition to Canada/Mexico included in your plan? What plan do you have?

There is not an option to block only specific countries. The block would apply to all international calls. Does the line still need to be able to contact Mexico and Canada?*Stanley
