Also these country codes are used by many dialer programms (when using dialup internet access). So I suspect many customers have complained abou this situation and they blocked them. For Liechtenstein the code in question is +4236639.
Yes, maybe you're right! But I can't understand why block a country code (+423) and not only the +423663.9xxx... it's not so difficoult for a network as T-Mo
