    What is the code # that I need to dial from USA to UK, in order to reach a live operator that will give me a residential phone #. I have tried the internet and nothing seems to work. Spoke with this person over my celphone last summer but her # did not registered into mine and I think that she does not has it registered.

    Hello,

    UK directory assistance (or directory inquiry as they call it) can only be dialed from the UK. This is how this service works everywhere. In order to find out information on an international phone number you should call a US directory assistance service such as 411.

    I did that and the operator tells me that I have to dial 00. When I dial 00 I get a message that asks me to dial the desired # to call and does not transfers me to a operator for international #s information. There was a time that when dialing 00 you could reach an operator but now it seems to be a thing of the past and when I called my phone provider they seem to be searching a knowledge information database to help me but as of yet have not been able to help me. Please let me know if you find any useful information. Thanks a lot for your prompt reply.
