Getting calls from a 01329 number?
01329 is a legitimate geographic code, so most calls from it are ordinary: local businesses, surgeries, schools, councils and households in the Fareham area. Two things are worth knowing before you call back.
First, caller display can be faked. Scammers spoof real UK area codes to look local, so a 01329 number on your screen is not proof the call came from Fareham. Second, the safe habit is simple: if a caller you were not expecting asks for personal or payment details, hang up and ring the organisation back on a number you found independently.

01329 area code questions
Where is the 01329 area code?

How much does it cost to call a 01329 number?

Why am I getting calls from a 01329 number?
Most calls from 01329 numbers are exactly what they look like: a business, GP surgery, school or household in the Fareham area. But caller display can be faked, a practice called spoofing, so an unexpected call showing 01329 is not proof the caller is really local. If a caller asks for personal or payment details, hang up and call the organisation back on a number you found yourself, for example from its website or a bill.
Can I get a 01329 number for my business?
Yes. You do not need an office in Fareham or a phone line from the dominant local provider.
