What phone number is?
A telephone number is essentially your address within the telephone system. As with a postal address, it contains several layers of information. Your telephone number consists of a telephone country code, a city code or area code (in most, but not all, countries), and a subscriber number. You must dial the entire number, beginning with the country code, when calling from outside your own country, but you can usually dial only part of the number when calling locally or within your own country.

When do you need to use an area code?
When dialing a number outside your own area code, you typically must dial the area code. In some areas, you also must dial the area code for all toll calls, even within the same area code. Also, in overlay areas you must dial the area code for all calls.
Does it makes any difference to put country code or without when dial locally?
You CAN put your country code even if you dial locally - BUT - you'll be charged international call rate, as the exchange would treat it as any other international call ! In some places, you can't dial the country code for your own country. For example, North America is country code +1, but you cannot dial 011-1-area code-number. In other places, you can dial the country code for a local call and still be charged local rates.

How do you make a call from overseas to the US?
Firstly dial your own code to get International (from most countries it is 00). Then dial 44 for UK. Then dial the UK number that you have, omitting the first '0'. So if you were calling a London number that is for example, 020 7654 1234, you would dial 0044 20 7654 1234. Any problems, speak to your phone company.
Do you have to dial the area code in a long distance call?
If you are calling a different area code, yes, of course - otherwise how will the system know you are trying to call a number in that area rather than your own?
Do you put in the area code when calling a mobile from overseas?
That depends. If you are calling a mobile phone with a Fresno number, from a landline in Fresno, you can dial just the 7-digit number. If the mobile phone has a different area code, you will almost always need to dial it, and in many states if the mobile phone is not a local number for you, you may need to dial the area code, even if it's the same as your own.

What is the code for ringing the UK from Australia?
The telephone country code for Australia is +61. To dial it from a landline phone, substitute your own international dialing prefix for the plus symbol. Note that you must also drop the leading 0 from the Australian telephone number. For example, Sydney's area code 02 becomes +61 2.(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)
