    Hello @Artpayne , 👉 always use +E.164 format 👈

    Prefix codes like "0", "00",  "011" to do Long-Distance dialing only have "localized" significance within the country.

     

    To dial UK, always use +44.xxxxxxxxxx (i.e. London +44.20.XXXX.XXXX)  

    To dial US always  use +1.xxx.xxxxxx (i.e. New Year +1.212.xxxxxxx)

     

    Store all your contacts in the same fashion.

     

    Vinnie.
