Note the number is 11 digits, not 10 like here in the US. I've heard of intra-country toll free numbers, but not this. Anyone know how this works, or what a country-specific-toll- free-code consists of?International "free phone" is sort of "country code 800." You accessit the same way you access any other international call. If you werein North America you'd dial 011-800-NXXX XXXX. If you were in Europeyou'd dial 00-800-NXXX XXXX if you were in Australia you'd dial0011-800-NXXX XXXX. It's like other national free phone/toll-freethat the end party pays for the cost of the call. I don't think it'spossible to make international freephone calls from mobile phones.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -remove NO from .NOcom to reply
