    Does anyone know if the phone numbers for mobiles in the north of Ireland are the same as those from UK?

    As in, if I phone a N Ireland mobile from the UK do you need to put international code in front or is it just the same as dialling a mobile in the UK.
    Will you know the phone is Ireland not UK?

    hope i explained that properly:o

    NI is in the UK so it's the same. No need for int code.

    All networks in the north are UK networks, same as the mainland UK. To dial a uk number you will need to add 0044 to the number, dropping the first 0 of the number.

    Thanks guys:)

    Do you know if the numbers are clearly identifable as N Ireland numbers? I assume not? It will be a pay as you go phone.

    I am applying for jobs in UK and need a UK mobile!

    No, they cannot tell from the mobile number what part of the UK it is
