Is 07080 an area code?

area code (those start 01 or 02). 070 numbers are 'follow-me' personal numbers, NOT mobiles, and can be expensive to call - a common nuisance-call disguise.

and bank-impersonation calls all use them. Don’t ring back numbers you
don’t recognise without checking first. Our plain-English guide covers
