country code
Hi all
Im a little confused from what I have read, some websites say you should dial 0044 and then the number minus the initial 0, other sites say you should dial 0044 011 and then the number minus the initial 0.
Can someone who has rang a UK mobile phone/cell phone please help me out by telling me exactly what you dial from CA to get through to a UK based cell phone. I have to put the full number for my referees on my resume and I don't want to make any mistakes. Thanks alot.

You know how much it costs to call a UK cell phone from Canada? It is not cheap.
