    Sorry, im not sure if this is the right forum, but its only a quick question...

    I have to dial this number from my mobile (im in ireland)
    +353 56 xxxxxxx

    Right, so its a kilkenny number, that much i know. But i cant figure out how to get through. I know i should be dropping the 353, and putting a 0 in front of the 56 or something, but i just spent a few minutes trying different combinations of what i thought was right, no luck..

    any help? :confused:

    well you can leave the 353 and that in there no harm.

    otherwise 056XXXXXX and you should be sorted.

    Actually, I always recommend storing the full number, for when you're roaming (which most people do at some stage of the year, these days).

    + is the international access prefix which varies by country, but GSM providers all interpret it correctly (so it means 00 in Ireland, for example).

    so +35356XXXXXX is the proper full format to use. How to get a + on your phone depends on the model, but it's often either holding down the * or 0 key, or pressing it twice.
