Do you put +44 in the first box, [area code] then your mobile number in the second box? :o

Thank you

  • Personally, I enter the first 5 digits of my phone number in the first box and then the rest in the second box.

    I don't think it matters too much though Geebee as when a number is dialled any space (that may be indicated between the two boxes) will be omitted.

    In the words of Mr Marley 'baby don't worry about a ting I am sure all you comp entries will be alright' :)

    The area code is the first five digits. The 44 is the COUNTRY code. :)

    Don't feel stupid Gee, it's always better to ask as it seems to be so easy to invalidate your entry over small details :)

    If it makes you feel any better, I started a blog a month ago and have no idea how to get followers, if I have any followers, or how to tell if anyone has even looked at it....Now that's stupid :rotfl:

    I find it also confusing on t-mobile site when it asks for my mobile number, I can never get it right as it tells me I have entered incorrect! :o

    Are you putting a country code wingo? It could be rejecting the +44 if you are writing it in that format, or vice versa, you may need to add the country code. I hope you manage to get it to work.

    I think other bloggers would be horrified at my disaster of a blog....I may hold off posting it until I atleast work out how to upload a cover picture :rotfl:
