You need to dial 001 to make an international call from the US to another country (except Canada and most of the Caribbean). Then you dial 44 the country code for the UK. Then dial the full number (leave off the first zero if there is one).

If the number was 01234567890



You would need to dial:



001 44 1234567890



You dial 00144 then take the first 0 off the number and dial the rest of the number.

WOW WOW WOW people - the codes for the UK are NOT repeat NOT 0044 from every where in the world.



This is why when we publish numbers on a website or advertisement we put +44 123####etc. so that the caller can change the '+' to the correct access code for their country. If it was 0044 from everywhere we could print that directly.



For instance if calling from Cuba the code is 119 44



But as the questioner is in the USA then the code for the UK is 01144



That is why it is important to know where you are phoning FROM in order to give correct codes.



In all cases though you do need to leave out the leading zero fron the telephone number - for instance if calling a number listed in UK as 0208###### - then from the US you would call 01144 208#######.



If the number is quoted as +44 20######## then simply change the + to 011 so that you dial 0114420########.



Do remember also that if you are using a cell (mobile) phone many of the cheaper tariffs do not allow international calling - you may needto call your phone service provider to upgrade - or use a landline phone.
