Since 1999 the London dialing code and numbers have been: (020) xxxx xxxx Following the exhaustion in the '7xxx xxxx' and '8xxx xxxx' ranges a decade ago in c.2005, the '3xxx xxxx' London blocks have been used for issuing new numbers.[*] See: http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/telecoms/numbering/guidance-tele-no/london-area-code/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/020 If you moved into a new house in London, you too would likely receive a '3xxx xxxx' number. -Paul [*] Note that numbers are not allocated individually/incrementally, they are assigned in blocks of 10,000 to a telco, exchange, or company. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFWJicuc444tukM+iQRAioQAKC7JaLUfkmtfHSThUstInVGamx+7ACgx8kP 0N82y1tbOK2AKlQxbVqDpAE= =XUhr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
