    I am getting a SIM card for my cell phone that has a UK telephone number. I am traveling in Austria, Czech Republic and Hungary. How do I make calls within those countries, and how do I make a call back to the US – both land and cell phones?

    New to this so I really appreciate your help, Cherry

    Hello Cherry,
    To call back to the US add 00 to the complete US phone number: 00 1 ??? ??? ????. You can also use + instead of 00 (literally keying in the plus sign), but never both.

    Calls within those countries can either be dialed in their local or international dialing format. Say you want to dial this Austrian cell number: 6?? ??? ????. You either add zero to it (the way you add 1 to US state to state calls): 06?? ??? ???? or you dial the full international number (no zero this time): 00 43 6?? ??? ???? or again +43 6?? ??? ????.
