About Digital Select Limited’s Great Yarmouth allocation

When Digital Select Limited is the range holder for +44 1493 it means Ofcom recorded Digital Select Limited as the provider entitled to issue numbers from these blocks when they were first allocated under the UK National Telephone Numbering Plan. 2 Great Yarmouth-facing blocks sit against Digital Select Limited in the current Ofcom snapshot, each of which can carry up to ten thousand individual digits available for assignment to end customers.

Great Yarmouth’s Norfolk telecoms estate is shaped by Great Yarmouth's residential and business catchment: a dense urban exchange typically hosts allocations from several national operators in parallel, which is why you see Digital Select Limited’s blocks alongside other range holders on the same 01493 code. Local switching capacity, historic Openreach exchange footprints, and Digital Select Limited’s wholesale routing arrangements all influence which blocks land in Great Yarmouth rather than elsewhere on the national plan.

Treat this allocation as a starting point, not a verdict on any specific caller. UK numbers are portable, so the current carrier on a given 01493 digit string may differ from the range holder shown — read Range Holder vs current provider for the distinction, and How Ofcom allocates UK phone numbers for the wider context behind the table below.

FAQs about Digital Select Limited on 01493

Why does Digital Select Limited appear on Great Yarmouth (01493) numbers?

Digital Select Limited is listed in Ofcom's UK Numbering Data feed as the originally-allocated range holder for 2 number blocks on the 01493 dialling code, which covers Great Yarmouth. That allocation pre-dates any individual customer — it simply means Ofcom recognised Digital Select Limited as the wholesale operator entitled to issue those digits when the block was first allocated.

Are calls from a Great Yarmouth Digital Select Limited-allocated number safe?

An Ofcom allocation only tells you which provider the block was issued to; it is not a safety verdict. UK numbers can be ported between networks, and any UK area code can be spoofed by an overseas caller.

Has Digital Select Limited's 01493 block been updated recently?

Yes — the table above is sourced from Ofcom's public UK Numbering Data feed, which we re-ingest every week (typically Wednesday). Any block that has been re-assigned, withdrawn or marked free will appear with its new status on the next refresh. Numbers within an allocated block can still be ported to another carrier in between Ofcom updates; see our range-holder-vs-current-provider guide for the distinction.
