Some questions about international dialing via 0844 numbers
Can some one call to a mobile phone abroad via 0844 numbers?
Yes, the mobiles in any country can be called using the 0844 number, but the cost of calling would be obviously different to different countries depending upon th eservice providers and other related matters.
How it works?
You just have to give the international number on which you have to dial the call. Your 0844 number will then be mapped to the international number you gave to the 0844 number service provider. Now, whoever calls this 0844 number, the call will be diverted to that international number through the service providers internet routing networks . So, this costs you even less than the BT calling rates, please see the article “cheapest international calling via 0844 numbers” and other related articles to know the cost of calling to different countries and the cost comparison with BT.
Can some one call from his UK mobile to their landline?
Yes, you can call to the 0844 number mapped international number from your mobile phone but the rates would be different. Since your international number is called via the 0844 number mapped to it so, the caller from mobile will have to call your 0844 number. Like for example 0800 numbers are toll free from landlines in UK but mobile service providers like Orange, O2, Vodafone charge some amount for calling on the 0800 numbers. So, your calling rates on such internationally mapped 0844 numbers will vary from one service provider to other and hence your should consult your mobile service provider for cost details.
