The country code for North America (USA, Canada, etc.) is +1. In the US, cell phones use exactly the same geographic area codes as landlines.

(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)

From a UK mobile, dial +1 and then the US area code and number.

If you are calling a US-based cell phone that is at the moment physically in the UK, you just dial the US telephone number as normal. The physical location of the cell phone does not affect what you dial to call it. The cell phone user will pay any roaming fees that may apply.

If you are calling a US cell phone from the UK, use telephone country code +1, followed by the 10-digit US telephone number. If you are calling from a mobile phone, you should be able to enter the number in full international format, beginning with the plus symbol. Otherwise, substitute the UK's international access prefix 00 for the plus symbol.

Note that, unlike the UK, where mobile numbers are assigned to nationwide non-geographic codes, US cell phone numbers use the same geographic area codes as landlines, and are completely indistinguishable from landline numbers. Calls to US mobile phones are charged at identical rates to calls to US landline numbers.

The most reliable way to dial from a GSM mobile phone is to enter all telephone numbers in full international format. For a UK number, replace the trunk prefix 0 with country code +44. For a US number, insert country code +1 before the area code and number. The mobile network will automatically insert the appropriate prefix for you, no matter where you roam. For example, +447700900123 or +13115550123

Alternatively, while traveling in the US, you can enter a US number in domestic format, as either area code + number or 1 + area code + number. For example, 311 555-0123 or 1 311 555-0123.

How do you dial an English cell phone in America from an English cell phone in England?

Just dial it as you would normally do if both handsets were in England. Whenever you dial a mobile (cell) phone, the phone network automatically dials it as if it was an international call anyway. Although it may not show up in the phones memory, each number is automatically prefixed with +44 - which is the international access code for the UK. This will only work, if the English cell phone in America is logged onto the cellular system in America. The phone will have to be a tri-band, to use US frequencies and have an agreement by your service provider, to connect you. This known as 'roaming'.

Most mobile phones in Britain start with a 07. It is normal for international dialling to drop the leading zero. The dialling code for Britain is 44. For most countries to dial internationally you dial 00. So to dial a British mobile phone you would dial 00 44 7 and the rest of the number.
