What are 01642 3XXXXX numbers?

Any UK number matching 01642 3XXXXX sits in the 01642 dialling code for Middlesbrough. Ofcom hands these numbers to communications providers in blocks; this range contains 37 blocks, of which 37 are allocated and usable. Calls from these numbers are typically homes and businesses in the Middlesbrough area — or organisations elsewhere that keep a local 01642 presence using VoIP.

Who holds 01642 3… 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 01642 3… number safe?

A local-looking number is never proof of who is calling: fraudsters spoof 01642 caller IDs so their calls look like they come from Middlesbrough (‘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.
