To call an 800 number from Mexico, you can’t dial it exactly the same way you would from the US. Toll-free US numbers like 1-800 become charged calls when dialed from outside the US, and you’ll need to replace the 800 prefix with a Mexican access code – usually 001-880 or a variation depending on the number. Here's how it works.

Making a phone call from the US to Turkey is simple once you know the correct dialling format – and there are plenty of free and low-cost options to stay in touch. Whether you’re calling friends in Istanbul, family in Ankara, or handling business with contacts in Izmir, you can connect instantly using mobile apps or traditional phone lines.

Calling Guatemala from the US is simple once you know the format – and there are free and low-cost ways to do it too. You’ll need to dial the US exit code first, followed by the Guatemala calling code, and then the 8-digit local number. That means:
011 (US exit code) + 502 (Guatemala’s calling code) + local number.

To call Mexico from the US, just dial the international access code (011), Mexico’s country code (52), the area code, and the local number – and yes, it’s different if you’re calling a landline or a cell phone. Whether you’re trying to reach family or handle business, there are simple rules and helpful tools for making your call smoothly and affordably.
