Official Ofcom register · updated weekly
UK 116 & 118 numbers
Six-digit UK numbers starting 116 and 118 are “Type B” service codes with their own Ofcom register — 3,089 codes, 585 allocated. This page lists every allocated code with the provider behind it and, for named services, what the service actually is. Download the full register as CSV.
116 numbers — free harmonised helplines
116 numbers are reserved across Europe for services with social value, and they are free to call from UK landlines and mobiles. The register currently lists 3 allocated 116 codes in the UK:
| Number | Service | Run by | Carrier |
|---|---|---|---|
| 116000 | Hotline for Missing Children24 Hours a day, 7 days a week, nation-wide support service for those who are affected by a missing child | Missing People | BT |
| 116111 | Child Helplines24 hours a day, 7 days a week nation-wide support service to help children inneed of care and protection. | National Society for the prevention of Cruelty to Children. (NSPCC) | BT |
| 116123 | Emotional Support Helpline24 hours a day, 7 days a week nation-wide support service from the Samaritans. | Samaritans | Gamma Telecom Holdings Limited |
The best known is 116 123 — the Samaritans’ emotional-support line. A call from a 116 number back to you would be highly unusual: these are inbound helplines, so treat any inbound “116” caller ID with suspicion and look the number up.
118 numbers — every named directory-enquiry service
118 replaced the old 192 directory enquiries in 2003 and was opened to competition — which is why there are hundreds of registered 118 codes. They are among the most expensive numbers you can dial in the UK: since April 2019 Ofcom has capped 118 charges at £3.65 per 90 seconds of call time, and before the cap some services charged over £10 a call. The 274 allocated codes with a named service are listed below, with the provider that operates each.

FAQs about 116 and 118 numbers
Are 116 numbers free to call?
Yes. 116 numbers are harmonised European social-value helplines and are free from UK landlines and mobiles, and they never appear on your bill. 116 123 (Samaritans) and 116 111 (Childline's harmonised code) are the best-known UK examples.
How much does a 118 number cost?
Since April 2019 Ofcom has capped 118 directory-enquiry charges at £3.65 per 90 seconds. Costs still add up fast — especially if the service offers to connect your call and stays on the line. The service's own advertising must state its price.
Who owns 118 118?
118 118 is operated by The Number UK Ltd, the best-advertised UK directory-enquiry brand. The full register above shows the operator behind every allocated 118 code, straight from Ofcom's weekly data.
Why would a 116 or 118 number call me?
Genuine 116 helplines and 118 enquiry lines take inbound calls; they rarely, if ever, ring out from their short code. An incoming call displaying one of these codes is more likely a spoofed caller ID — don't call it back blind, and check the number first.
