The cellular phone advice was exactly the trick.<br /> Thank you, cheers from Miami! </p> http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/topic/how-do-you-dial#post-2755 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 05:26:55 +0000 admin 2755@http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>There are two types of situations in which the plus sign is used for international dialing instructions:</p> <p>1. The way we use it on this site where the plus sign has a separating role between the elements of a calling sequence (IDD code, country code, etc). For example, to call from the US to a phone in Italy you would enter: 011 + 39 + phone number; however, you don't actually dial these plus signs, you just use 01139 followed by the Italian number.</p> <p>2. You will sometimes see an international number starting with a plus sign. The example above will be: +39 followed by the phone number. In this case the + replaces 011 which is the US IDD or exit code. Here you will actually have to dial the plus or use 011 instead - either way works.</p> <p>The plus sign can be dialed when using a cell or VoIP phone to place the call. Look for + on the phone's keyboard (for cell phones it is usually one of those characters that can be entered by dialing a button twice). Many landline phones do not have the capability to dial +.</p> <p>There's also an article we wrote a while ago on the subject:<br /> <a href="http://www.howtocallabroad.com/qa/plus-sign.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.howtocallabroad.com/qa/plus-sign.html</a> </p> http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/topic/how-do-you-dial#post-2754 Wed, 25 Apr 2012 02:26:47 +0000 pbrstreetg 2754@http://www.howtocallabroad.com/forums/ <p>How do you dial "+" ? </p>
