How to Dial Internationally
To make international calls using our service, dialing the prefix "011" before entering the country code and phone number is essential.
For example, outbound calls should be placed as such 01161396694916 (Melbourne Weather & Time Institute Test)
This prefix is required for routing the call outside the United States, ensuring that it connects properly to the intended international destination. Without including "011" at the beginning, the call may not be processed correctly, resulting in a failed connection or an inability to reach the desired number. Always remember to start with "011" when dialing internationally to ensure a smooth and successful call.
