I live in the U.S. and my girlfriend lives in England (Nottingham) for the year. She gave me a number to use when calling her (beginning with 0044) that just doesn't work, friends. I've also tried other things, like 01144, or something, but I can't seem to get my head around it. Also, I'm using a calling card (using a land phone), if that makes any difference. So could someone help me get through to my lover?

to dial a person in a foreign country from the USA, you are correct: dial "011" plus "country code" (44 for UK) plus telephone number. If the "local" telephone number is listed as something like
+44 (0)1 234 56 78
then you need to drop the "0".
Calling cards have their own quirks. Read the instructions on the calling card. If it still is confusing, try using 3U-telecom... their rates are uber-cheap and the calling card feature is easy to use... even from your cell phone (just program the number in)!

00 + Country Code + City Code (if applicable) + Number
Example: Calling from USA to Manchester, England
00 44 161 (Number)
