0131 718 Dialing Code

Edinburgh

Dialing Code 0131 718 is part of Area Code 0131, which covers Edinburgh and the surrounding area.

The majority of numbers in the 0131 Area Code belong to normal landlines in Edinburgh, but it is possible that these numbers are being used elsewhere as virtual numbers.

There are multiple telephone companies operating in the 0131 Area Code and they are allocated blocks of numbers, which can be identified by the digits following the Area Code. In this case, the digits 718 after the area code indicate that the range of numbers was originally allocated to BT on 6 September 1996, although due to number portability, individual numbers within this range may now be allocated to other operators.
