I don't know about the UK, but each phone has a process to "dial out" or "international call" that you have to dial first.
Followed by the country code of Japan which is 81.

In my experience , unless the Japanese cell phone is set up to recieve international calls , you will not be able to get through

Hmm, that's interesting. I've used cell phones from every major carrier in Japan (au, softbank, docomo, softbank prepaids) and they were all set to receive international calls by default. I thought that was an industry standard, but I suppose anyone can change their phone settings to deny international calls. Anyway as others have mentioned you need to dial the international access code first (00 for the UK), then Japan's country code (81), and then the cell number minus the first 0 (80-xxxx-xxxx). There are no area codes as Japanese cell phones do not use area codes. So dial: 00-81-80-xxxx-xxxx more info here: http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2223_how.html

Dial to Mobile Phones

Have a smartphone dialing application in your mobile phone that will let you dial numbers directly from your contact list.
I suggest for Pingo EZ Dial that is available to different mobile phone models with rates the same with its prepaid calling card service.
