How much does it cost to call a 01200 number?

Calls to 01200 numbers are standard geographic landline calls, charged at your provider’s normal UK landline rate and usually included in inclusive minutes — the same as calling an 03 number.

I had a missed call from a 01200 number — is it a scam?

Not necessarily, but be careful: scammers spoof local codes such as 01200 so a call looks like it’s from Clitheroe and you’re more likely to answer. If in doubt, hang up and call the organisation back on a number you find independently.

How do I dial a Clitheroe number from abroad?

Drop the leading 0 and add +44. A number written as 01200 XXXXXX becomes +44 1200 XXXXXX when dialled internationally.

Can this tool tell me who owns the number?

No. It shows the area of the dialling code and the provider Ofcom allocated the number range to — not the individual or business holding a specific number, which may also have been ported to another network.

Q: Where is the 01200 area code?

Where is the 01200 area code?

The 01200 dialling code is the UK geographic area code for Clitheroe. Because 01200 is a geographic (01/02) code, a number using it is tied to the Clitheroe dialling-code area — though with modern hosted telephony (VoIP) a business can keep a 01200 number after moving premises, so the code reflects the number’s designated area rather than a guaranteed physical location today.

Ofcom currently lists 388 number blocks under 01200, of which 128 are allocated to 98 communications providers.

Clitheroe phone number format

A Clitheroe number is made up of a 5-digit area code followed by a 5 or 6-digit local number. Written in full it looks like 01200 XXXXXX (the Xs stand for the local digits). Ofcom has not reserved a fictitious drama range for 01200; for on-screen examples it recommends the unused 01632 960000–01632 960999 range.

Who holds 01200 number ranges?

Ofcom allocates 01200 numbers to providers in blocks. These providers hold the largest allocations under 01200:

Range holder (allocated by Ofcom)	Number blocks	Example range
Vodafone Ltd (C&W)	8	`01200 30XXXX`
BT	6	`01200 33XXXX`
Gamma Telecom Holdings Limited	4	`01200 40XXXX`
Digital Space Group Limited	3	`01200 263XXX`
GCI Network Solutions Limited	3	`01200 36XXXX`
Inet Telecoms Ltd (Voipfone)	3	`01200 760XXX`
Resilient Limited	3	`01200 560XXX`
TalkTalk Communications Limited	3	`01200 227XXX`

…and 90 more providers hold smaller allocations in this range.

Ofcom’s data shows the provider each number range was originally allocated to — not who holds an individual number today. Numbers are frequently moved (ported) between providers, and no public database reveals the person or business behind a specific number, so treat any service that claims to with suspicion.

Call charges for 01200 numbers

Calls to 01200 geographic numbers are charged at your phone provider’s standard UK landline rate and are normally included in inclusive call minutes. UK-wide 03 numbers are guaranteed by Ofcom to cost the same as 01/02 calls, while 084, 087 and 09 numbers cost considerably more — always check the prefix before you dial.

Spotting spoofed 01200 scam calls

Fraudsters frequently spoof local dialling codes, faking the caller ID so a scam call appears to come from a Clitheroe (01200) number you might trust. Remember:

A familiar 01200 area code is not proof the caller is local or genuine — caller ID can be faked.
Banks, HMRC and the police will never ask you to move money or share passwords or one-time codes over the phone.
If a call feels off, hang up, wait a moment, and call the organisation back on a number from their official website or your statement.
