Vonage - Dialing UK local and national numbers

Hi,

With Vonage if I dial a UK local or national number what format does it have
to be in?

e.g for a Bracknell number if I am already in Bracknell can I just dial
123456 or do I have to dial 01344 123456?

Calling within the UK I assume I do not have to use international format
0044 1344 123456?

Regards,

Paul

Come on down !

Thanks Dexter,

That is a nice touch from Vonage allowing you to only require to dial the
national number within your own country.

I was concerned that if you missed an incoming call and you looked through
your missed call list on you phone and saw 01344123456 called then tried to
return the call it would fail because it was not in the international
format.

Looks like all will work fine on Vonage.

Regards,

Paul

Even better....

Using Vonage I can dial the local 6 digit number and it works!

i.e if I am in Bracknell (01344) and cal my neighbour all I have to dial is
123456.... nice!

Paul,

Could I ask please that you trim and bottom post on this group, please..?
Top posting makes it very hard to follow the thread of conversation.

Please note I'm not 'having a go' at you, it's just that this is the usual
way of doing things on most groups.

Many thanks,

Ivor

Please don't shout. I asked politely, there is no need to be abusive. I
wasn't asking you, anyway.

Normally I ignore your posts because of top posting and SHOUTING.

If that's the way you want it - you'll get ignored.
