International Call Services

Frequently asked Questions

1. How do I make an International call?

Making an international call is easy:

  • Dial the International Access Code of the country you are calling from (e.g. from South Africa this is "00");
  • Dial the Country Code for the country you are calling (e.g. for the USA this is "1");
  • Dial the Area Code if there is one (e.g. for San Francisco this is "415");
  • Finally, dial the phone number of the person you want to call.

2. Where can I find the country codes to each destination?

3. Do you have a time zone map?

Yes, time differences between countries can be a dilemma when you want to make a call. View the time zone map to first establish which time of the day it is in the other country before you make the call.
