calling internationally

I haven't used my comcast phone landline to call international since I changed providers. I dialed 011-country code-the number and hear your call can't be connected. I read the "help" page on how to call overseas and I see it's stated to add 0 or 00 to the number. So where do I need to put them? Are they saying to dial 0011 instead of 011 or add the 0/00 somewhere else? Yes I'm older and it seems dumber with technology.

Well Xfinity spent time and was very responsive in trying to get the problem solved.  In the end it wasn't a problem caused by them. The number that was emailed to me from the friend; she's not young and which  I haven't talked to for many years, ended up having 2 numbers transpositioned. 04 should've been 40. I found one website with their number given as she was a beagle breeder and judge. I dialed the 40 given from that website and we got connected.  Yea!  Ok you can call me whatever you like; i can take it. *-)

Something to keep in mind if you have issues.  Make sure the number is correctly given to you.
