Why a call to Vietnam fails
The 0 is still in the number
The 0 at the start of a Vietnamese number is for calls inside Vietnam. From abroad, leave it out: Ho Chi Minh City's 028 becomes +84 28.
The exit code is wrong for your country
00 works from Vietnam and most of the world. From the US and Canada the exit code is 011.
The number does not take calls from abroad
Numbers that start with 1800 or 1900 are toll-free or premium-rate inside Vietnam and often cannot be reached from outside the country.
