How much does it cost to call a 01677 number?

Calls to 01677 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 01677 number — is it a scam?

Not necessarily, but be careful: scammers spoof local codes such as 01677 so a call looks like it’s from Bedale 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 Bedale number from abroad?

Drop the leading 0 and add +44. A number written as 01677 XXXXXX becomes +44 1677 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 01677 area code?

The 01677 dialling code is the UK geographic area code for Bedale. Because 01677 is a geographic (01/02) code, a number using it is tied to the Bedale dialling-code area — though with modern hosted telephony (VoIP) a business can keep a 01677 number after moving premises, so the code reflects the number’s designated area rather than a guaranteed physical location today.

Ofcom currently lists 451 number blocks under 01677, of which 95 are allocated to 84 communications providers.

A Bedale 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 01677 XXXXXX (the Xs stand for the local digits).

Who holds 01677 number ranges?

Ofcom allocates 01677 numbers to providers in blocks. These providers hold the largest allocations under 01677:

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 01677 scam calls

Fraudsters frequently spoof local dialling codes, faking the caller ID so a scam call appears to come from a Bedale (01677) number you might trust. Remember:

A familiar 01677 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.
