If the overseas number is given as +44 (0) 1234 567890 you dial 14101234567890.

It might be helpful if you could tell us which numbers you are having problems... you may be new, but the instructions are in bright-red text before you post, and we aren't mind readers unfortunately.

The UK's international code is 0044 or +44 (and you also have to omit the leading 0 of the STD code) from a UK cellphone (not 44) but that will not cause your call to show as 'international' if the receiver has Caller Display.

141 is the prefix to withhold your CLI when using a UK landline.  In my experience, on a cellphone, that function is achieved by a programming function on the particular cellphone rather than using the 141 prefix.  

Those 2 issues probably account for your calls failing.

After years of ignoring govt. guidelines & RIPPING OFF Council Tax payers using 0845 numbers, Essex County Council changed to 0345 numbers on 2 November 2015
