070 Personal numbering numbers UK

About 070 numbers in the UK

The 070 prefix is part of the UK National Telephone Numbering Plan administered by Ofcom and falls into the Personal numbering family. 070 numbers look like a mobile but are personal redirect numbers. Calls can cost up to 50p/min and are commonly abused in scams.

Ofcom allocates 070 number ranges to UK communications providers (Range Holders) in 1,000- or 10,000-number blocks. The table below lists every currently-allocated block we have ingested from Ofcom’s weekly Numbering Data feed. Click any Range Holder to see their full UK portfolio, or paste a specific number into the lookup form above to see the originating provider, the allocation status, and a live AI internet check for any public reports about that exact number.
