How much does it cost to call a 01376 number?

Calls to 01376 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 01376 number — is it a scam?

Not necessarily, but be careful: scammers spoof local codes such as 01376 so a call looks like it’s from Braintree 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 Braintree number from abroad?

Drop the leading 0 and add +44. A number written as 01376 XXXXXX becomes +44 1376 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 01376 area code?

The 01376 dialling code is the UK geographic area code for Braintree. Because 01376 is a geographic (01/02) code, a number using it is tied to the Braintree dialling-code area — though with modern hosted telephony (VoIP) a business can keep a 01376 number after moving premises, so the code reflects the number’s designated area rather than a guaranteed physical location today.

Ofcom currently lists 478 number blocks under 01376, of which 165 are allocated to 99 communications providers.

Braintree phone number format

A Braintree 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 01376 XXXXXX (the Xs stand for the local digits). Ofcom has not reserved a fictitious drama range for 01376; for on-screen examples it recommends the unused 01632 960000–01632 960999 range.

Who holds 01376 number ranges?

Ofcom allocates 01376 numbers to providers in blocks. These providers hold the largest allocations under 01376:

Range holder (allocated by Ofcom)	Number blocks	Example range
BT	17	`01376 30XXXX`
GCI Network Solutions Limited	11	`01376 47XXXX`
Sky UK Limited	11	`01376 408XXX`
Vodafone Ltd (C&W)	8	`01376 39XXXX`
Virgin Media Limited	7	`01376 363XXX`
TalkTalk Communications Limited	6	`01376 423XXX`
Gamma Telecom Holdings Limited	3	`01376 297XXX`
Resilient Limited	3	`01376 690XXX`

…and 91 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.

Spotting spoofed 01376 scam calls

Fraudsters frequently spoof local dialling codes, faking the caller ID so a scam call appears to come from a Braintree (01376) number you might trust. Remember:

A familiar 01376 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.
