In conclusion, you just have to dial directly the subscriber number, usually consisting of seven digits. Thus, to call America, you need the following chain: 8 - (beep) - 10 - 1 - three-digit area code - seven-digit subscriber number.

Today we will talk about profitable calls to US mobile phone numbers: how to dial the number correctly, what are the tariffs for Russian mobile operators to America's phone numbers, and how you can save on such calls.
How to dial a number
First, let's tell you how to type correctly telephone number phone when calling. The US mobile number format does not differ from the Russian one if you use international dialing.
We recommend that you always save the phone number in the international format with a plus sign. This will always use the stored phone number, regardless of the network used mobile communications, as well as the country from which the call is made. When you save the number through the eight, you can send messages and make a voice call only in Russia.
Consider the example of a US phone number - a mobile or landline phone number. After the plus sign used to access an international line, dial one - this is an international telephone code U.S.A. It is with the number “1” that all numbers of America begin. Then dial the operator or city code, and the subscriber's telephone number.
Usage international system dialing will allow you not only to always dial the number correctly, but also to use it for communication via Internet telephony, which also allows you to get a favorable cost of calls to another country.
Please note that when making a call from your Russian number in the United States, it does not matter to you which digit the American number begins with. When making an international call, there is a single tariff that applies to the whole country. The only exception is the numbers of certain operators that are partners Russian companies. However, there are no such destinations among US operators.
How to save on mobile
Using the optimizing services of cellular operators, you can get additional savings on communication services. And international calls are no exception. Each operator is offered to use options for profitable calls abroad, and some even have separate tariff packages.
As for calls to the USA, not all of the “big four” have special conditions. So, Beeline has a special “Welcome” option, which the operator offers to use for free, but it does not apply to calls to America. Thus, if you have a Beeline number, then a minute will cost fifty rubles. Such a tariff can only be considered as for calls in the most unforeseen situation.
But the most favorable prices are offered by Tele2. The youngest operator allows you to call the US at eighty kopecks per minute. To do this, you need to use the additional option “Simple geography”. The service is not free, and Rostov subscribers pay two rubles per day for each day of its use.
The first connection to the service is free, but for each subsequent connection, a fee of thirty rubles is taken. The command * 155 * 51# is used to connect.
Special conditions for calls to the USA can be used by MTS and MegaFon subscribers. To do this, you need to use additional paid options. They differ in cost, but the tariff is the same. It does not depend on the direction of the call, and every minute of a conversation with any numbers in America is paid for five rubles.
MTS subscribers need to use the service “Favorable international calls”, which is paid monthly - fifty rubles. By dialing * 111 * 902 # on your number, you must wait for the service to be connected, and then make calls at a single rate.
Megafon subscribers can use the “Call all countries” option. After dialing the command * 105 * 0081#, the cost of the service for the first thirty days in the amount of one hundred rubles is debited from the balance. Later access to favorable tariff in the USA will be carried out for a daily fee of three rubles.
If we compare the offers of the two operators, then MTS offers a lower cost of using the service, however, MegaFon has more low prices for calls to specific destinations.
Other options
Using instant messengers, you can use calls to the USA completely free of charge, paying only for Internet access. However, if the messenger you are using is not installed on the phone of an American subscriber, then you can also save money by making calls directly to a cell number through it.
So, “Viber out” offers two options. The first is to replenish your balance. In this case, all calls to the US will be charged at 1.38 rubles per minute, and it will be possible to talk at this rate as long as there are funds on the balance.
The second option will allow you to get unlimited calls for three dollars a month. In this case, it is necessary to replenish the balance every month to pay for such a tariff - approximately two hundred rubles.
You can also use Skype, which offers a more flexible pricing policy. You can use both a per-minute payment, which is identical to the offer from Viber, and subscribe to unlimited calls.
By choosing unlimited, you can not only get significant savings and not worry about the minutes used, but also get additional discounts for payment. Depending on the chosen period, you can save up to fifteen percent.
findings
For profitable and inexpensive calls to the USA, you can use both the services of cellular operators and Internet telephony. The choice depends on the required volume of calls per month. If you need unlimited access to calls in this direction, we recommend using instant messengers. Most mobile operators provide unlimited access to them, and only the tariff in the messenger itself is paid.
If there are few calls, or unlimited is not needed, then you can use both instant messengers and services from mobile operators. The exception is Beeline, where calling to the USA at a low rate is not available even with additional services. The most profitable price to calls to the USA at Tele2.
