What a 075 number tells you

What it is

Numbers issued to mobile networks in blocks. The first few digits show which network the block was originally allocated to – but people can keep their number when they switch network.

What it costs

Watch out for

The original network tells you nothing about who owns a particular mobile today.

The range holder isn’t necessarily the caller. Ofcom gives numbers to providers in blocks, and people and businesses can take their number with them when they switch. To find out who actually called, check the full number.
