How much does it cost to call an 01925 number?

Calls to 01925 numbers are geographic landline calls, charged at your provider’s standard UK landline rate and normally included in any inclusive minutes — the same as calling an 03 number.

I had a missed call from an 01925 number — is it a scam?

Not necessarily, but be careful. Scammers often spoof local codes such as 01925 so a call looks like it’s from Warrington and you’re more likely to answer. A familiar area code is never proof of who is calling — if in doubt, hang up and call the organisation back on a number you find independently.

How do I dial a Warrington number from abroad?

Drop the leading 0 and add the UK country code +44. A Warrington number written as 01925 XXXXXX becomes +44 1925 XXXXXX when dialled internationally.

Can this tool tell me who owns the number?

No. It shows the geographic area of the dialling code and the communications provider Ofcom allocated the number range to — not the individual or business that holds a specific number, which can also have been ported to another network.

An Warrington 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 01925 XXXXXX (the Xs stand for the local digits). Ofcom has not reserved a dedicated fictitious range for 01925. For on-screen examples it recommends the unused 01632 960000–01632 960999 range. Real Warrington numbers follow the pattern 01925 XXXXXX.

Spotting spoofed 01925 scam calls

Fraudsters frequently spoof local dialling codes, faking the caller ID so a scam call appears to come from a nearby Warrington (01925) number you might trust. This is called neighbour spoofing. Remember:

A familiar 01925 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).
