Who uses 07 numbers?

Scam & cost warnings
Caller ID on mobile numbers can be spoofed, so a call appearing to come from a mobile is not proof of identity. Watch out for 'Hi Mum' and delivery-scam texts sent from ordinary-looking mobile numbers.
How to check a 07 number
Not sure about a number you’ve been given or called by? Paste it into the

type, the area (for geographic numbers) and the provider Ofcom allocated the range
to, using official data refreshed every Wednesday. For example, try 07700 900000 in the checker above.
