Do I need to include the 0 for my UK phone number?

Ugh, yes, that pesky zero! Its so confusing. Within the UK, you absolutely need the zero before the area code – its just how our system works. But calling from outside the UK? Ditch it! Honestly, it drives me crazy remembering which way round it goes. Just another thing to remember when calling internationally.

Do I need to include the 0 for my UK phone number?

Ugh, it’s so confusing, isn’t it? That pesky zero! Okay, so, within the UK? You absolutely NEED it. Before the area code, yeah? It’s just…how it works here. But then, calling from outside the UK? Ditch it! Gone! Honestly, sometimes I even mess it up myself. Like, I was calling my grandma in Scotland from Spain last year, and I kept adding the zero out of habit! She couldn’t understand why my calls weren’t going through. ????‍♀️ It’s just one of those things you have to remember with international calling, you know? So annoying! One less zero when calling into the UK from abroad, one more zero when calling within the UK. Why can’t it just be simple?!
