Cell phone & International calling question

[CherokeeCowgirl]

I have a friend that is in Seoul Korea right now. Can I call his cell phone and get through? Do I need to use codes of any kind?? Or can this even be done at all?

does your friend have a Korean telephone number or are you calling a US phone number that is currently with the owner in Korea?

IF he has a Korean telephone number you will need the country code....

IF you are calling his USA telephone number and he has the phone on in Korea... you dont need a special code

He has an American cell phone. I just need to talk to him asap and don't know where he is staying either. I will try to call when it gets 5 am there. Otherwise, I guess I will have to wait until he comes home.

also try e-mail you would be surprised the amount of people that check their e-mail daily while on vacation

It'll only work if his cell is set up to take international calls.

If it is an AT&T phone or other type of simcard phone then it is a world phone standard but may cost extra for him. Verizon in a different system an may or may not work where he is. Ether way you just call or text his normal number.

Good luck! And I would also try email/FB if that's an option.

As long as your friend has international service on his cell phone, no problem. My DH travels out of the country for work, and I call him all the time. You guys can also use skype, which is what we also use.
