Dell Contact Numbers - Dell Inspiron 3800 Reference And Troubleshooting Manual

Dell Contact Numbers

When you need to contact Dell, use the telephone numbers, codes, and electronic
addresses provided in Tables 5-1 and 5-2. Table 5-1 provides the various codes
required to make long-distance and international calls. Table 5-2 provides local tele-
phone numbers, area codes, toll-free numbers, Web site and e-mail addresses, if
applicable, for each department or service available in various countries around the
world. If you are making a direct-dialed call to a location outside of your local tele-
phone service area, determine which codes to use (if any) in Table 5-1 in addition to
the local numbers provided in Table 5-2. For example, to place an international call
from Paris, France to Bracknell, England, dial the international access code for France
followed by the country code for the U.K., the city code for Bracknell, and then the
local number as shown in the following illustration.

To place a long-distance call within your own country, use area codes instead of
international access codes, country codes, and city codes. For example, to call Paris,
France from Montpellier, France, dial the area code plus the local number as shown in
the following illustration.

The codes required depend on where you are calling from as well as the destination
of your call; in addition, each country has a different dialing protocol. If you need
assistance in determining which codes to use, contact a local or an international
operator.
NOTE: Toll-free numbers are for use only within the country for which they are listed.
Area codes are most often used to call long distance within your own country (not
internationally)—in other words, when your call originates in the same country you are
calling.
