Dialling US toll free numbers from Overseas
Posted on April 20th, 2006 in Travel
Many people don’t realise that you can dial US Toll free numbers (800) from overseas. The calls aren’t toll free, but with calling cards at about 1 cent per minute it’s cheaper than most local calls.
In Australia, dial your calling card access code, enter your pin, then dial the international access code + US country code (1) + area code (800) + number
e.g. calling card access number + pin + 0011 + 1 + 800 + rest of number.
Alternatively if you have free international minutes on your mobile/cell service you can dial
+1 800 GOT JUNKÂ will get you the North American call centre of 1800-Got-Junk
