What are 07423 numbers?
Numbers starting 07423 are UK mobile
numbers under Ofcom’s
07 mobile numbers range.
Charged at your standard mobile rate and included in inclusive minutes.
Is 07423 an area code?
No — 07423 is not an area code. Area codes (or dialling
codes), such as 0161 for Manchester or 0113 for Leeds,
start 01 or 02 and tie a landline to a place. 07423 starts 07, so it
is a UK mobile number range, not a geographic area. A call or
text from an 07423 number therefore isn’t from a particular town —
it’s from a mobile whose range Ofcom allocated to one of the networks in
the table below (and the number may since have been ported to another network).
Which network do 07423 numbers belong to?
| Range | Range holder (allocated by Ofcom) | Status |

07423 0XXXXX | Vodafone Limited | Allocated |
07423 1XXXXX | Vodafone Limited | Allocated |
07423 2XXXXX | Vodafone Limited | Allocated |

07423 4XXXXX | Vodafone Limited | Allocated |
07423 5XXXXX | Vodafone Limited | Allocated |

Ofcom’s weekly data shows which network each 07423 range was originally allocated to — the table above. Bear in mind UK mobile numbers are very frequently ported, so the person calling you may be on a different network today; the allocation is a starting point, not proof.
How often is 07423 checked?
243 people checked an 07423 number with this tool in the four weeks to 20 September 2026. That makes it the 8th most-checked UK mobile range on this site out of 537 with any checks at all.
Checks per week (weeks ending on the dates shown). Our own lookup data, counted once per person per number per day, with Ofcom’s drama/example ranges excluded and refreshed weekly. It measures how many people were curious enough to check a number in this range — it is not a count of scam calls, and it says nothing about any individual number. The quarterly nuisance-call prefixes report puts every range side by side.
Had a call or text from an 07423 number?
Unexpected calls and texts from unfamiliar mobile numbers are a common scam pattern — missed-call (‘Wangiri’) baiting, fake delivery texts and bank-impersonation calls all use them. Don’t ring back numbers you don’t recognise without checking first. Our plain-English guide covers what to do: Who called me from a +44 7 mobile number?
