How to Dial the U.K. from the U.S. – Bandwidth’s Calling Guide

Dialing from the U.S. to the U.K. involves different processes depending on whether you're calling a landline or cell phone. When calling a U.K. landline, type in the exit code (011), enter the country code (44), key in the area code, and finally dial the user’s phone number. For U.K. cell phones, after entering the exit code (011) and country code (44), dial the mobile code (7) followed by the mobile phone number. Be aware of the time difference between the two countries as it varies depending on the time zone in the U.S. Business calls should be conducted with punctuality, politeness, and fact-based arguments. The cost of calling from the U.S. to the U.K. can vary greatly among service providers, so it's important to check your plan or consider alternatives like VoIP numbers for lower international calling costs.
