How much does it cost to call a 01340 number?

Calls to 01340 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 01340 number — is it a scam?

Not necessarily, but be careful: scammers spoof local codes such as 01340 so a call looks like it’s from Craigellachie 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 Craigellachie number from abroad?

Drop the leading 0 and add +44. A number written as 01340 XXXXXX becomes +44 1340 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.

Where is the 01340 area code?

The 01340 dialling code is the UK geographic area code for Craigellachie. Because 01340 is a geographic (01/02) code, a number using it is tied to the Craigellachie dialling-code area — though with modern hosted telephony (VoIP) a business can keep a 01340 number after moving premises, so the code reflects the number’s designated area rather than a guaranteed physical location today.

Ofcom currently lists 460 number blocks under 01340, of which 89 are allocated to 80 communications providers.

Craigellachie phone number format

A Craigellachie 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 01340 XXXXXX (the Xs stand for the local digits). Ofcom has not reserved a fictitious drama range for 01340; for on-screen examples it recommends the unused 01632 960000–01632 960999 range.

Who holds 01340 number ranges?

Ofcom allocates 01340 numbers to providers in blocks. These providers hold the largest allocations under 01340:

Range holder (allocated by Ofcom)	Number blocks	Example range
BT	5	`01340 81XXXX`
Inet Telecoms Ltd (Voipfone)	3	`01340 450XXX`
Digital Space Group Limited	2	`01340 377XXX`
Fuse 2 Communications Ltd	2	`01340 501XXX`
TalkTalk Communications Limited	2	`01340 318XXX`
(AQ) LIMITED	1	`01340 32XXXX`
24 Seven Cloud Communications Ltd	1	`01340 526XXX`
API Telecom Limited	1	`01340 689XXX`

…and 72 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.

Calls to 01340 geographic numbers are charged at your phone provider’s standard UK landline rate and are normally included in inclusive call minutes.

Spotting spoofed 01340 scam calls

Fraudsters frequently spoof local dialling codes, faking the caller ID so a scam call appears to come from a Craigellachie (01340) number you might trust. Remember:

A familiar 01340 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.
