Re: US mobile to US mobile while travelling abroad

One other thing I just thought of -- or rather, my wife did, really:
How do we call from our cell phones to numbers in either Scotland or Ireland?
Do we need the country codes when we're in the countries?
And is Northern Ireland different in that regard from the Republic of Ireland?
 
Many thanks for all the help.

Scotland & Northern Ireland are part of the UK, so you dial +44, followed by the number. If the number starts with a leading zero, drop it.
Ireland is it's own country, so you dial +353 instead of +44, the rest of the rules are the same. Note that you may not be able to call a UK number from Ireland and vice versa unless you add Expanded International roaming (the service that allows calls to a third country to be made when roaming internationally, besides calls to the country you're roaming in and back to US).
