I have tried this. This does not work Calling within Mexico using a U.S. cell phone is quite different Here is the list i got from my wireless service provider. I don't know if it's different from provider to provider, but the following are the dialing patterns i had to use. When using a U.S. cell phone in Mexico: 1. When calling a local land line: dial seven-digit number only. 2. When calling a local local cell phone: dial 044 + area code + seven-digit number. 3. When calling a long distance land line: dial 01 + area code + seven digit number. 4. When calling a long distance cell phone: dial 045 + area code + seven digit number. I hope this helps. You'll have to figure out the long distance/local thing on your own by trial and error because i don't know what constitutes either.
