I purchased the $10 international option, but so far I've been unable to successfully dial any number in Europe form my MJ in the US. I've tried:
01144...and the number
44...and the number
I also tried dialing the above without the first 0 of the number with the same result - all I get is session in progress.
Should I try more numbers or am I approaching this incorrectly? Phone works fine to dial numbers in the US.
Thanks.
How do I make an international call ?

I don't remember where on their site, but they do tell you how to dial the correct numbers. Or God forbid call their Tech Chat.

Denver,
That is why I suggested calling their Tech Chat, I read that shit also and it makes no sense to me but then I have never called to Europe on any phone in the last twenty years (back when it was two cans and a string).

I call UK without any problems: 011 44 20 phone number ....... It announces the time you have left depending upon your balance and the location your are calling and connects your call. Excellent sound quality.
If you do not hear the announcement then there is a problem with your setup and you should definitely be talking to Tech Chat.
