If it worked for you and does not for me, I can only think that my 400 min available on international calls from the free gift does not actually work.  It shows I have it but I guess I realy dont.  I will try a europe number shortly.

tried that, did not work.  I think that free gift they are promoting is fake.  Nothing works.

I tried that number.  I got "we don't support the short code you are trying to reach"

I think that free christmas gift they are promoting is fake.

I would also try +52 followed by the phone number.

Try this
"In some countries, there is a different procedure for calling a mobile phone number. For example, when calling a mobile phone in Mexico, you must add a '1' to the country code. So, if you are calling a mobile in Mexico City, Mexico (country code 52, and city code YY), you would dial 011 - 52 - 1 - YY - XXXX-XXXX."

@Pharmbouy Try this as a test: 011 52 55 4777 2929 Microsoft. It worked for me!

Try 011-52- 10 or 11 digit number

Edit: Sorry I didn't read that right, that's what you did.
