There is no '0208' area code, but 020 is the code for London in the UK.
People sometimes still wrongly write numbers in the format 0208 xxxxxxx. This suggests that the code is 0208, but that has never been the case and is probably just down to people misunderstanding how London phone numbers work since the renumbering that took place in the year 2000.
London has just one area code (020), and all local numbers have eight digits.
