How would you call to the usa from guatemala?

Question

im giving my friend in guatemala my phone number. what should he dial before my area code and number??

Answer 1

yes, most international calls are 1 (area code) number

         ex. 1-555-123-4567

Answer 2

I don't know the answer to that, but I do know the best way to save money.  Buy a re-conditioned cell phone and a card with minutes.  It is VERY inexpensive, usually about five cents per minute to the U.S.

I travel to Guatemala frequently, and my host there always gets one for me, so unfortunately, I don't know where to buy it.  They seem very popular, though.  I would bet that anyone at a hotel can tell you where to obtain one.

Answer 3

Have him dial 001 before your area code and number.  For example, if your number is 555 - 1212, your friend must dial 0015551212

Answer 4

From Guatemala, dial 011 to get an international dial tone, then dial your area code + your phone number.

Answer 5

In order that the call will not be too expensive tell your friend to dial like this:

For example if your number is 478-1246-1245

134-001-478-1246-1245 or

147-001-478-1246-1245

And the cost of the call will be lower than dialing directly 001 + the area code + the number.

Good luck.
