What is +44 phone?

+44 is the country code for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland (UK). Therefore, any phone number starting with +44 is a UK phone number.

Here's what you need to know:

• Geographic Coverage: +44 covers the entire United Kingdom, including England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

• Numbering Format: UK phone numbers typically consist of the +44 country code, followed by an area code (usually starting with 0, which is dropped when dialing internationally) and then a subscriber number. For example, a London number might be +44 20 xxxx xxxx. The "20" is the area code, and the rest is the local number.

• Mobile Numbers: Mobile numbers in the UK also use the +44 country code. They commonly start with 7 (e.g., +44 7xxx xxx xxx).

• Calling the UK: To call a UK number from another country, you must dial the international access code for your country (usually 00 or 011), followed by 44, and then the UK phone number, omitting the leading 0 from the area code or mobile prefix. For example, if the UK number is 020 7946 0000, you would dial 00 44 20 7946 0000 from many countries.

• Scams: Be aware of phone scams and unsolicited calls from +44 numbers. Always exercise caution and verify the identity of the caller before sharing any personal information.
