What are 01563 5XXXXX numbers?

Any UK number matching 01563 5XXXXX sits in the 01563 dialling code for Kilmarnock. Ofcom hands these numbers to communications providers in blocks; this range contains 10 blocks, of which 10 are allocated and usable. Calls from these numbers are typically homes and businesses in the Kilmarnock area — or organisations elsewhere that keep a local 01563 presence using VoIP.

Who holds 01563 5… number ranges?

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.

Is a call from a 01563 5… number safe?

A local-looking number is never proof of who is calling: fraudsters spoof 01563 caller IDs so their calls look like they come from Kilmarnock (‘neighbour spoofing’). If an unexpected caller asks for personal, banking or one-time-code details, hang up and ring the organisation back on a number you find independently. To put a name to a caller, see who called me?; to report one, see how to report a scam number.
