    hi, having a really annoying prob maybe someone can help me :D
    came home from hols a few weeks ago an was looking through my phone an found a few of my english friends' numbers. They put them in themselves so the ireland-england prefix isnt on them and i dont know what it is as the 0044 doesnt seem to work! is that only 4 landlines??
    anyway heres a sample of two :D.....

    007935******

    and

    0016175******

    This is an American/Canadian number you are showing us....

    007935******

    This looks like a Russian number ......

    Either your friends don't have English phones or you've put up the wrong numbers

    You should get into the habit of using "+<country code>" for your stored numbers, e.g +44 for UK and +353 for Ireland. This allows dialling those numbers to work anywhere as all GSM networks recognize + as international call prefix.
