That sounds like a system working perfectly correctly. What is the issue?

The issue is that legit, licensed businesses -- calling each other to conduct lawful business (not spam, calling to discuss pricing on existing deals) and T-Mobile blocking the calls. So, for example, a Verizon client is calling a State enforcement officer who's device is T-Mobile -- now the licensee call cannot go through to communicate with their enforcement officer -- which can lead to bad things -- such as LEO at your door with dogs and guns.
