Mobile Prefixes/Number Formatting in Northern Ireland

Bluefrog · 2009-06-29 16:22:43

Hey all, I'm looking for information on the mobile numbering system in operation in Northern Ireland. In the Republic it is relatively simple - a mobile number will have a prefix (086, 087 etc) Can anyone tell me how this works in Northern Ireland? Are there defined prefixes or numbering formats?

Great! Me dumb, should have thought of OFCOM - a regulatory body that actually does something - easy to forget in Ireland
