Hi, yes, we are using a "funny" dialplan here in Germany, but is not so bad.
Here are some Basics: Typical PSTN Access Code: "0" LongDistance Access Code: "0" International Access Code: "00" Ok, lets say you are located in Hamburg and you want to call somebody else in Hamburg (Area Code 40), you have to dial "0" + Rest of Number (without Area Code). You can use the Area Code, also but then you would have to dial "0" + "040" + Rest of Number. (Most of the German People will not do that) If want to call someone in Cologne (Area Code 221) you have to Dial "0" + "0221" + Rest of Number. And if want to call a number in a different country like UK you to dial "0" + "00" + Rest of Number. Some special Numbers: 110: Police 112: Emergency / Fire Department 0900T: Expensive Comercial Numbers (Premium Rate) 01[567]XT: Mobile Numbers, different Providers 0800T: Free Call To overcome the Problem with the non fixed length telephonenumbers, you should use overlap sending, or tell the users to use the # Sign or wait for T302 Timer (they would not like that...) Normally I use the following Route Patterns: 0.[1-9]XXX, PreDot, Overlap Sending --> Local Calls 0.0[1-9]XX, PreDot, Overlap Sending --> National Calls 0.00[1-9]X, PreDot, Overlap Sending --> International Calls When you are Using CLIP/CLIR No Screening (Feature that allows you to send every Number as your Calling Number, you have to pay the Provider for that) you have to make sure that you provide your Calling No with Area Code (Without leading 0) + Rest of Number and Plan/Type as ISDN/National, or when the Calling Number is International you have to provide the Number in format: Country Code + Area Code + rest of Number and Plan/Type as ISDN/International. If you are not using this Feature you can send your Number with Plan/Type as Unknown/Unknown. There is an official institution called "Bundesnetzagentur" which will provide a complete explanantion of the German Dial Plan. (bundesnetzagentur.de) but it is all in German, of course. HTH, Robert P.S.: Area Code of Munich is 89, so a +E164 Nr. In Munich will look like +49 (0) 89 T. -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von [email protected] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 1.
