Tips for Calling Abroad from Mobiles

Tips for making international calls from mobiles

There's a simple trick for making cheap international calls from your mobile without having to keep dialling both the access number and the international number every time you use the service.

Here's how to save time when making cheap international calls from your mobile:

Simply add a pause between the access number and the international number you wish to dial:

e.g. You want to call Mum in Australia.
So, you create a new entry called 'Mum' in your phone-book on your mobile and then when entering the number:

1. Enter the just-dial or just-dial card access number i.e. 0870 794 0000

2. Enter a 'pause'. This is done as follows depending on your brand of mobile

Nokia Phones:A 'p' should appear after * has been pressed 3 times: i.e. 0870 794 0000 (*** will show a 'p')

Siemens/Panasonic Phones: A '+' should appear after 0 has been pressed and held.

Motorola / Ericsson Phones / Sony: A 'p' should appear after * has been pressed and held.

3. Now enter your international destination number in full including 00 and press save.

That's it - next time you want to call 'Mum' using just-dial simply find mum in your memory and press call!
