| how to call gsm cell from north america Posted: Fri May 16, 2008 04:14 PM UTC
I have an unlocked GSM cell phone with an international SIM. The cell number is something like +4423456...
People in CANADA need to call me using a regular land line phone. What number do they type in to call me? |

You don't indicate where you actually are. + means international code, and 44 is UK. Normally you can get the + by holding down 0
SO my guess is they just key in your number. Alternatively, you (they) could try changing + to 00 because that's pretty standard international access code these days. But + would get the phone to do it. |

Canadians dialing UK numbers dial 011 first, before the 44 and rest of number. I'm assuming it doesn't matter where he is if the number is a UK one.
