07 numbers are used for mobile telephones in the United Kingdom.
Exceptions to this are numbers beginning 070 and 076 (not including 07624, used for mobile phones on the Isle of Man).
Including the '07', mobile phone numbers are 11 digits long.
They are charged at up to 32p per minute from BT land lines, and typically at up to 40p per minute from other mobile phones.
When dialling from a mobile phone, calls to other mobile phones are usually included in free bundled minutes, but this is not normally the case when dialling from a land line.
Previously, it was possible to ascertain the operator of a mobile phone number from the mobile phone code, but now mobile numbers are portable between operators (meaning customers can move to a different operator and retain their number), so it is no longer possible to be sure who the operator is from the code.
More information on individual 07 mobile phone numbers can be found by browsing the 07 mobile phone number list.
