How do I order a specific phone number

andyhilton — Sat, 20 Dec 2014 19:09:13 GMT

Hello to all,

Who can I contact to order a specific phone number for my new business? It'll be a local geographic landline where I live and operate, but I want to choose the number. Any direction or contact would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Andy

Hi I would also like a specific number for my business that I run from home. I live in Leeds West Yorks and I will still want to use the area code (01132)
I have just moved in to a new house and I have ordered bt phone and broadband and it's getting connected next Thursday 16th April. I did ask the operator at the time I ordered the phone line and broadband but they didn't know how I could ask for a specific land line number that I would like so it spells out my business name. Any help would be great.

Kind regards Neil

Hello Ryan,

All numbers are owned by Ofcom and are released in batches to carriers (BT, TalkTalk, etc.) so it is a case of finding out if the number range you want has been released yet and to which carrier.

If you private message me I will check for you.

Hi,

I need to get a specific Number that is owned by BT (so i'm told!) it's a local unsued number.

How do I go about obtaining it?

Hi, Lyca had taken a phone number away from me as I did not use it for 90 days and I was unaware that was the time frame. I use that number for buisness and would like to know where that number has gone and if i can request that specific number?

Hey rumana97,

If you send me the number via private message, I can have a look to see if that's available or if it's locked and in use with a specific provider currently.

Thank you, Bobby
