Which companies hold 0560 numbers
Ofcom allocates numbers to phone companies in blocks. These are the operators holding the most 0560 blocks. The company that was issued a number often supplies it onward to a business or reseller, and UK numbers can be ported between networks, so read this as where the number started, and a strong hint rather than proof of who serves it today.

|---|---|---|
| BT | 54 | 42% |
| Magrathea Telecommunications Limited | 23 | 18% |
| Inet Telecoms Ltd (Voipfone) | 9 | 7% |
