Calling O2 number overseas from another country

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi guys,

 

A friend of mine is going to South Africa soon and will be using an O2 PAYG phone. She will also be meeting a friend of hers there , who is from Australia and will be using an Australian mobile number. What country code will her Australian friend need to call her while they are in South Africa? Will she have to use the UK country code of 0044 or the SA code of 0027 in front of the O2 UK mobile number?

 

Just to clarify, they will both be in South Africa.

 

Thanks.

Just dial the same as if they were at home so +44 to dial a UK phone and +61 for the Aussie one.
