The following indicates access codes and numbers used within various countries
for toll-free and special paid services. The dialing codes shown represent how
they would be dialed within the country involved. Generally, it is not
possible to access another country's domestic toll-free or specialty network
directly. Where an international access is available, it is normally done by
using the domestic services which then forward the call to the destination
country.
Where possible, the number of digits has been indicated with 'n' (a number from
2 to 8) or 'x' (any number). An ellipsis (...) indicates that there are a
variable number of extra digits, or possibly a conflict in the reports of
numbers of digits used.

008 xxx xxx That is how Phrack Inc. recomends it be written
to differentiate it from STD area codes
which are written with area codes (0x) thru
(0xxx) and numbers n xxxx through nxx xxxx.
0014 ttt xxx xxx International Toll free access from Australia

access code; or, ttt may not be present at all.

0800 xxxxx (...) (Private phone company as local service provider)
9800 costs the same as a local call (dialable from
all areas in Finland), while 0800 are truly toll-free and
dialable from all private telco areas.

05 xxxxxx This is outside area code 1, so from Paris 16 05.
05 19 xx xx These numbers terminate outside France.

'11' is computer directory information.
'12' is voice directory information (equivalent to 411).

0130 xxxx (...xx) The number to use AT&T is 0130-0010 and U.S. Sprint is
0130-0013. For a general toll-free number listings, pick up
a copy of the International Herald newspaper and look in the
sports section is for an AT&T add. You will find a number
for dialing the US from various countries. Mearly, chop
off the exchange and only use the "area code" number.

167 xxxxx (digits length)
We're not 100% sure about the length of digits for Italy.
One way to check these is to get a copy of an *international*
edition of the weekly magazines like TIME, all ads and little
contents. But they do goof up regularly, like printing Paris
numbers as (01) xxxxxxxx when they mean (1) xxxxxxxx.

06-0xxx
06-0xxxxxx
06-4xx(x) 06-2229111 is AT&T USA direct and Sprint & MCI have operator
services on 06-022xxxx. It used to be possible to call
06-022xxxx to Denmark, and then use the CCITT no. 4
signalling system to phreak calls to anywhere in the
world.
06-11 This is the Dutch equivalent of 911, it is free when
dialled from a phone company operated payphone, otherwise the
charge is one unit, DFL 0.15, about US $ 0.08. There were
discussions about making such calls free from any phone, but
I haven't followed them recently. Calling a toll-free number
from a payphone requires a deposit of one coin, which is
returned after the call.
The total length of the numbers varies from 4 to 10 digits
and the dash indicates the secondary dial tone. It is not
possible to reach 06 prefixed numbers from abroad.
=====================
N e w Z e a l a n d
=====================
0800 xxx xxx That is through the state telco, Telecom New Zealand. Clear
Communications, the recently started alternative LD carrier,
does not offer a toll-free service as yet. When Clear offer
one, it will more than likely be to the subscribers existing
number (eg Dial toll free 050-04-654-3210) as they are not
in control of number issue. 0800 is strictly Telecom at this
stage.
=========================
N o r t h A m e r i c a
=========================
1 800 nxx xxxx Access to toll free numbers can vary according
to region, state or country (ie. not all 800
numbers are accessible to all regions).
The nxx prefix portion of the 800 number presently
determines which long distance carrier or 800
service company will handle the call (and in
some cases determine the geographical region).

900 xxxxxx The number for ATT direct in Spain is 900-99-00-11. The
payphones are all push-button but generate pulses. It takes
forever to get connected.

04605 xxxx (not toll-free but metered at lowest rate)
155 xx xx ("green number")
In Switzerland there is nothing exactly like the equivalent
to United States "800" service. The PTT is now encouraging
the use of "green numbers" beginning with 155. The direct
marketing ads on TV often give the order number for
Switzerland as a number such as 155 XX XX. The access number
for MCI Call USA is for example 155 02 22. There are two
problems with this:
1] When calling from a model AZ44(older model) payphone all
numbers which begin with a "1" are treated as "service"
numbers and the payphone begins to sound a "cuckoo clock
noise" once the 155 is entered. The "cuckoo clock noise" is
to alert operators on the "service numbers" that the caller
is using a payphone (fraud protection). This noise is quite
a distraction when calling someone in the USA using MCI Call
USA.
2] The newer style TelcaStar phones are programmed to block
the keypad after 3 digits are dialed of a "service number".
It used to be that the only numbers beginning with "1" were
"service numbers" and all "service numbers" were 3 digits.
The PTT is aware of this problem and are said to be
considering what instructions to give the manufacturer of the
payphones.
AT&T USA Direct has an access number of 046 05 00 11. This
is not a free call, but the time is metered at the lowest
rate. This number does not suffer the "cuckoo clock noise"
problem.
Canada Direct uses 046 05 83 30.

(currently) DFL 0.50 / minute.

(other exchange prefixes within area codes such as 540, 720
or 915 are used for other pay services such as group chat,
other types of recorded messages, etc. These vary depending
on the area code within North America, and not all regions in
North America have these.)

Numbers starting with 0713-0717 can only be dialled from
phones connected to AXE exchanges. At present about half of
all phones in Sweden are connected to such exchanges.
Another special toll number is domestic number information:
07975 (6,90 SEK/minute).
