Dialling code - Aus to UK ?
 
Is it 44 00 then, for example, 161 ( rather than 0161 ) ??

(providing you're on a telstra line - don't know about the rest) you can ring:

00 11 44 ....... and pay by the minute

OR

00 18 44 ....... and pay by the 1/2 hour.

00 18 44 works ou t a bit cheaper provided you know exactly how long you're going to talk for (1 hour) and don't got a minute over it
