There is no STD code '0207' in England.

However, 020 is the area code for London, always followed by an eight-digit local number; the "7" following "020" is in fact part of the eight-digit 'local' number.

Occasionally people still display numbers with the spaces in the wrong place, making it look as though the code is 0207, 0208, 0203, etc...

More specifically, most (but not all) UK phone numbers beginning (020) 7xxx xxxx are likely to be in Central London. http://www.magsys.co.uk/telecom/codelook.asp features a tool that may help you confirm a more specific location.

Note that there is no longer any official distinction between inner and outer London in phone numbers - it's quite possible for an (020) 7 number to be used in the outer suburbs, or for (020) 8 numbers to be used in Central London.

UK telephone area code 020 is London. The 020 8357 prefix is used throughout the greater London 020 area, not limited to any specific neighbourhood(s). Furthermore, with number portability, any given 020 number may be located anywhere in the 020 area, served by any local telephone company.

UK telephone area code 020 (or +44 20 in international format) is London. A telephone number beginning with 020 7987 is most likely a landline in the Poplar district in Tower Hamlets E14; however, with number portability, any specific 020 number could be located anywhere in the greater London 020 area, served by any local telephone company.

(The plus sign means "insert your international access prefix here." From a GSM mobile phone, you can enter the number in full international format, starting with the plus sign. The most common prefix is 00, but North America (USA, Canada, etc.) uses 011, Japan uses 010, Australia uses 0011, and many other countries use different prefixes.)

In the UK, area code 020 is London. Although you will see frequent references to area code 0207, there is no such code. The 7 is the first digit of the 8-digit local number.

Where is area code 0207 209?

In the UK, there is no area code 0207. Area code 020 is London. Number portability means that it is no longer reliably possible to narrow down a London number to a particular neighbourhood by the first few digits of the number. In fact, the "inner/outer" distinction formerly in the digit 7 or 8 following the area code, no longer holds firm.

Hotels with number 0207?

If this is a UK telephone number then the (020) area code represents LONDON. London numbers have eight digits and begin 3xxx xxxx or 7xxx xxxx or 8xxx xxxx. The other unused numbers are for future expansion. There is no such area code as 0207 or 0208. The writer has not formatted the number in the correct way. The correct format is always: (020) xxxx xxxx or: +44 20 xxxx xxxx
