Australia telephone codes?

Hello,

I got a Telstra sim card from ebay today.

So got the telephone number to give to relatives to send texts etc. What code do relatives need to put in front of it to phone me?

They will be calling from UK to Oz.

eg will it be 0061 then the number 0437......
Do I need to take off the 0 before number 4?

Thanks

YES!

And bear in mind that calling an 04 (mobile) number will be expensive. Keep the call to a minimum - just long enough to find the nearest landline and call that instead.
