    code for UK is 0044 then miss out the first 0 of the uk number.
    i.e UK 01206-121212 becomes 0044-1206-121212. Hope that helps

    Hi fozzboy, sounds like your on roaming, get your phone unlocked to accept any sim card, then buy a smart sim or any Pinoy sim card, replace your British sim with the smart sim. then phone your bro up. just like Broadside states.

    :confused: Ever thought of Using Skype? Cheap as Chips! mm Mind you, Chips (French Fries)are not cheap any more.:wink:
    Skype is good value and world wide coverage. Good rates, I pay .14 c (€) a minute Spain To PI.

    skype is ok if you have a credit card and webcam on other end as well peso cards always work for me to U.S. e-mail is the easiest and cheapest unless you need instant response and then I set up messenger for relatives to communicate. everyone has their preference and great to have choices.
