Pakistan

In "List of international mobile codes", why is Pakistan listed at the bottom of the list and not bulleted? I'd fix it, but I feel like I'm missing something here. 72.154.230.203 23:00, 7 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading title

I think that the title International mobile phone codes is somewhat misleading. Mobile phone codes can be said as special area codes that is used to allocate numbers to mobile phone subscribers. In fact, the codes are not only used when calling from abroad; it must be used to make a call to a mobile phone regardless of location. Some of the countries in the list (eg East Timor, Singapore) does not use area codes. --Joshua C hi e w 15:02, 27 November 2006 (UTC) In asia, only china mainland have more different in price for mobile, but carrier in HongKong will provider standard price for all china mobile phone, so only personal IDD call still have different in diferent location.[reply]

For home user that is no big different, but for commercial that required very high accurate calculation, I have faced very high requirement for very detail to show call to all listed country domestic call or mobile. When you calculate a call to other country, the mobile charge and domestic call charges is different, then this is essential. i have a freind in queens land australia and i cant find the correct code for that country —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.214.74.93 (talk) 13:24, 11 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Changed very misleading title

The previous title "List of mobile phone codes by country" would indicate MCC and such, which this list is *not* about. The best term for this subject is "phone number series", I believe. -- Egil (talk) 10:16, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

+1-94

+1-281 is listed as a mobile code in this list, but as far as i know, there are no mobile codes in the US. I'll delete it.

If someone should not agree with me about this, please post here.

Fixes

Rearranged the formatting of the table at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_phone_codes_by_country#International_prefixes_table with the following changes: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_mobile_phone_codes_by_country&action=historysubmit&diff=320558554&oldid=320180825

It still needs to be cross-checked with the list at top of the page. (79.73.177.16 (talk) 20:08, 17 October 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Section deleted.

Whoever deleted this entire section, http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_mobile_phone_codes_by_country&diff=prev&oldid=339096496 needs to be sure that all of the details in the deleted list are reflected in full in the table that remains. That is, various people have randomly added stuff to either the list (now deleted) or the table (still there), and rarely to both. (80.6.169.215 (talk) 19:12, 23 January 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Canada is same than us?

Why are prefixes for Canada shown? Should be the same than US (landline + mobile same numbers) --78.43.225.88 (talk) 12:41, 28 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

NSN 12

It is claimed that several French overseas territories use mobile numbers with an NSN length of 12 digits. Search for "12?". Is this correct? It seems unlikely. -- 212.139.104.211 (talk) 09:22, 20 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sweden

Is the information for Sweden up-to-date (2020-09-02)? I'm seeing a lot of new "invalid" Swedish numbers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.95.179.69 (talk) 15:54, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the table for Sweden has a couple of entries saying "Ledig", which is not a phone operator but a word in Swedish that means "free" or "unused". 130.236.10.5 (talk) 08:50, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Broken links for Curaçao

A few countries say "See Curaçao and the Caribbean Netherlands" in the Notes column, but that link goes nowhere. What's the best course of action to fix this? - Noah R. (talk) 16:21, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
