Why t-mobile charges you for calling Toll-free numbers(800, 866 etc.)?

I have just bought a new t-mobile number and I have been charged for calling toll free numbers from my mobile. Could someone explain why t-mobile charges for calling toll free numbers.

1. you're paying for the use of the satellite network
2. It's NOT only t-mobile my friend. All companies charge you for that!
3. You should not be charged for dialing a toll free number with T-Mobile or any other carrier. If you are making the call during the peak times then you will be using your anytime minutes. Look on line at your mytmobile account and if you do see that you are being charged money for the toll free number, get the time and date of the call and call customer care. They will adjust the cost.
