Are you dropping the first 0 of the number before you add the +44? Also 0844 numbers are so-called NGN's or Non Geographic Numbers, and I don't think there's actually any guarantee that they'll be accessible from abroad, and if they do, what you'll be charged.

Enter the 0844 number on this site:

It should provide you with a regular UK landline number to call which will be cheaper than the 0844 number as some providers charge this number at UK mobile rates.
