How much does it cost to call a 01765 number?

Calls to 01765 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 01765 number — is it a scam?

Not necessarily, but be careful: scammers spoof local codes such as 01765 so a call looks like it’s from Ripon 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 Ripon number from abroad?

Drop the leading 0 and add +44. A number written as 01765 XXXXXX becomes +44 1765 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 01765 area code?

01765 is the UK geographic dialling code for Ripon. Any number written as 01765 XXXXXX is tied to the Ripon dialling-code area, though with modern VoIP a business can keep its 01765 number after moving away.

Where is the 01765 area code?

The 01765 dialling code is the UK geographic area code for Ripon. Because 01765 is a geographic (01/02) code, a number using it is tied to the Ripon dialling-code area — though with modern hosted telephony (VoIP) a business can keep a 01765 number after moving premises, so the code reflects the number’s designated area rather than a guaranteed physical location today.

Ofcom currently lists 379 number blocks under 01765, of which 109 are allocated to 92 communications providers.

Ripon phone number format

A Ripon 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 01765 XXXXXX (the Xs stand for the local digits). Ofcom has not reserved a fictitious drama range for 01765; for on-screen examples it recommends the unused 01632 960000–01632 960999 range.

Who holds 01765 number ranges?

Ofcom allocates 01765 numbers to providers in blocks. These providers hold the largest allocations under 01765:

Range holder (allocated by Ofcom)	Number blocks	Example range
BT	9	`01765 55XXXX`
Vodafone Ltd (C&W)	4	`01765 50XXXX`
TalkTalk Communications Limited	3	`01765 278XXX`
Digital Space Group Limited	2	`01765 287XXX`
Fuse 2 Communications Ltd	2	`01765 822XXX`
GCI Network Solutions Limited	2	`01765 57XXXX`
I.T Communications Limited	2	`01765 821XXX`
(AQ) LIMITED	1	`01765 79XXXX`

…and 84 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 01765 geographic numbers are charged at your phone provider’s standard UK landline rate and are normally included in inclusive call minutes.

Spotting spoofed 01765 scam calls

Fraudsters frequently spoof local dialling codes, faking the caller ID so a scam call appears to come from a Ripon (01765) number you might trust. Remember:

A familiar 01765 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.
