Relax Telecom Limited in Bristol

About Relax Telecom Limited’s Bristol allocation

When Relax Telecom Limited is the range holder for +44 117 it means Ofcom recorded Relax Telecom Limited as the provider entitled to issue numbers from these blocks when they were first allocated under the UK National Telephone Numbering Plan. 4 Bristol-facing blocks sit against Relax Telecom Limited in the current Ofcom snapshot, each of which can carry up to ten thousand individual digits available for assignment to end customers.

Bristol’s South West telecoms estate is shaped by Bristol's catchment of roughly 467,000 residents: a dense urban exchange typically hosts allocations from several national operators in parallel, which is why you see Relax Telecom Limited’s blocks alongside other range holders on the same 0117 code. Local switching capacity, historic Openreach exchange footprints, and Relax Telecom Limited’s wholesale routing arrangements all influence which blocks land in Bristol 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 0117 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.
