Why a local code still matters

Customers in Rochdale recognise 01706.

Geographic codes stopped meaning a physical line years ago, but they never stopped meaning something to the person dialling. A local code reads as a business that is nearby and reachable — which is why plenty of national companies hold one for every region they sell into.

Local, without an office

Hold a 01706 number whether or not you have premises in Greater Manchester. The number is not tied to an address.

Keep it when you move

Because there is no line underneath it, moving offices — or having none — does not cost you the number.

More than one answerer

A 01706 number can ring an entire team at once and fall through to a shared voicemail inbox.
