General
Telephone Usage
All
calls made in Sweden are billed. There is no such thing as
free or unlimited calling in your area code, with the exception
of emergency and 020 numbers. Every day after
6 p.m. and during weekends, charges for calls in Sweden are
50% of the standard rates.

Telephone
cards are loaded with 30, 60 or 120 units. The cards can
be bought in all Telia shops, in Pressbyrån, tobacco
shops, as well as other stores. Public telephones and
Telephone booths take telephone cards. Most of them also
take major credit cards.

Numbers
in different communities begin with a different code (i.e.,
Stockholm is 08).
-
Mobile
telephone numbers begin with 07. The caller also pays
extra to call these numbers. Remember that calling from
a mobile phone to a number in Stockholm requires
you to dial 08 first, even if you and your mobile phone
are in Stockholm when making the call.

Always
dial the International Dialing Code 00 first when dialing
direct out of the country. For U.S. dial 001+ area
code and number. Link
to AT&T's Country and City Codes Listing
-
Remember
that your phone calls will be billed once every two months
and that calls are not
itemized. If you want an itemized bill, you must request
and pay for that service.
