Don't you mean that your friends were charged the standard mobile rate in the UK, and you would have been charged extra had you answered it?

The phone company can't charge the caller a different rate for where you are - since there's no way that the person calling can be advised of the call charges.
You would be charged to retrieve your voicemails - as that's YOU calling from abroad back to UK.
