OK, here are the instructions I followed for dialing a "toll-free" number in the US from Mexico. Does everyone agree this is correct?
Dialing U.S. 800 Numbers from Mexico (800, 888, 877, 866)
Mexico has its own series of 800 numbers, so in order to make dialing U.S. numbers possible, they came up with a simple system. Simple - once you
know the secret...
To dial a United States 800 number FROM Mexico, replace the 800 prefix with the prefix shown below:
800 numbers Dial 001-880-then the number
866 numbers Dial 001-883-then the number
877 numbers Dial 001-882-then the number
888 numbers Dial 001-881-then the number
For example, to call Wells Fargo's customer service FROM Mexico we change the number from 1-800-869-3557 to 001-880-869-3557 and to dial Blue Shield
FROM Mexico we change the number from 1-888-568-3560 to 001-881-568-3560.
