Can people dial 08 numbers from abroad?
There is no definite answer to this. Normally, the person calling from abroad would have to drop the 0 (zero) at the beginning of the number as you would for a standard number and replace it with the international prefix. However, due to the now ever increasing bandwagon of carriers around the world there may be certain carriers who do not recognise these numbers and the caller may not be able to get through. That is why we recommend that for international business you also display your standard telephone numbers. On a positive note more and more international carriers are now recognising these numbers.
