Public Internet Limited in Henley-on-Thames

About Public Internet Limited’s Henley-on-Thames allocation

When Public Internet Limited is the range holder for +44 1491 it means Ofcom recorded Public Internet Limited as the provider entitled to issue numbers from these blocks when they were first allocated under the UK National Telephone Numbering Plan. 2 Henley-on-Thames-facing blocks sit against Public Internet Limited in the current Ofcom snapshot, each of which can carry up to ten thousand individual digits available for assignment to end customers.

Henley-on-Thames’s Oxfordshire telecoms estate is shaped by Henley-on-Thames's residential and business catchment: a dense urban exchange typically hosts allocations from several national operators in parallel, which is why you see Public Internet Limited’s blocks alongside other range holders on the same 01491 code. Local switching capacity, historic Openreach exchange footprints, and Public Internet Limited’s wholesale routing arrangements all influence which blocks land in Henley-on-Thames 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 01491 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.
