Where is the 01450 area code?
The 01450 dialling code is the UK geographic area code for Hawick. Because 01450 is a geographic (01/02) code, a number using it is tied to the Hawick dialling-code area — though with modern hosted telephony (VoIP) a business can keep a 01450 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 01450, of which 104 are allocated to 82 communications providers.
Hawick phone number format
A Hawick 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 01450 XXXXXX (the Xs stand for the local digits).
Ofcom has not reserved a fictitious drama range for 01450; for
on-screen examples it recommends the unused
01632 960000–01632 960999 range.
Who holds 01450 number ranges?
Ofcom allocates 01450 numbers to providers in blocks. These providers hold the largest allocations under 01450:

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 01450 scam calls
Fraudsters frequently spoof local dialling codes, faking the caller ID so a scam call appears to come from a Hawick (01450) number you might trust. Remember:
- A familiar 01450 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.
- Report nuisance calls to the ICO and forward scam texts to 7726 (free).
