From outside (many people write all their numbers like this, gives

From inside :

In Turkey, our numbers are 7 digit excluding area codes. If you're calling
within your city you tell the number as
### ## ##
If it is an inter-city call, you dial 0*** ### ## ## where *** is the city

cities. Finally, if you di

It went 01, 071/081, 0171/0181 then 0207/0208. BT changed the London codes

Similarly with dialling, whether I enter the number in national or
international format it ought to use the full international number under the
covers, so I don't get stuck re-entering numbers when I'm on holiday

Interesting one. Note that there is a lot of convention but not always
the optimal way. It is far more difficult to remember "837 12 463" than
"8371 2463" although you might be trained for two's and three's, four's
are better because you need less groups to remember.

In the UK the format varies depending on the length of the STD code (The
digits following the country code). Most STD codes are 5 digits long (4
when using international format). City STD codes can range between 3 and
6 digits. The most common formats are shown below. Wikipedia has an
