Here is a reminder that mobile telephone numbers are changing this
weekend.
All UK mobile phone, pager and personal numbers will begin 07. Many
already begin 07 but those that don't will change tomorrow, 28 April.
That doesn't mean just adding a 7 to the current number some
of the prefixes change altogether. See the table below to find out the
new numbers.
As of 28 April 2001, the safety net allowing calls to connect to both
the old and new mobile, pager, premium rate and special rate numbers
will be switched off. After this date only the new numbers will work.
So, make sure to change mobile phones, faxes, phones, PCs, switchboards
and databases, so they dont fail you on Monday.Heres a table
with information how the numbers will change:
