[gopunk]

that's not what att says

[udonoogen]

<< yea I thought it was 1 and isnt London 011? >>


no, england i believe is 44. 011 is what you dial to start international long distance from the states.

 

[Spook]

Yes, the country code for the U.S.A is 011 .... Spent a few years in the military, at least that's the way I allways had to dial it....

USA is 1

international access #'s vary from country to country. Its 011 for us.

we dial 011-(country code)-(recipient's # including area code)

That depends upon how dialing in Taiwan works, i.e. what the international dialing prefix is there and what the U.S. code is there.

 

[Finality]

Ugh for most that have not yet figured it out.
99% of the countries out there dial with 00 first. No that is not ATTs universal number but the universal number to dial outside the country.

The US country code is 1 so most likely the way to dial you would be 001 555-1234

 

[udonoogen]

yea ... i called from taiwan this summer ... if you use the calling cards you can by from 7-11 ... it gives you directions. when it asks you to enter a country code ... dial "one"

 

[Adul]

dialing internationaly sucks. but the country code for the us is 1. now what you use to dial internal can vary. I think thailand was a bit different has well when I was, so check with your local phonre company for that info

ex of dialing us

xx-1-aaa-555-1465

xx - code for international line

1 - US and Canada country codes
aaa - area code
555-1465 your number

 

[LukFilm]

It's 001, dammit

 

[Lars]

It is 001 from Germany to the U.S.

 

[Skyclad1uhm1]

+1
Replace the + with whatever is your international access code in Taiwan.

<< Alexander Graham Bell

Wrong.

Bell was American, but spent his summers in Canada, where he came up with the idea. He then went back to the States and built it.

 

[spanky]
