What kind of number is 028 9066 7877?
(028) 9066 XXXX is a number block in Northern Ireland, an area with a population of approximately 1,880,000. Standard landlines in this area use the format 028 9066 1234, with the first part being the dialling code and the rest being the local number.
This block — (028) 9066 XXXX — was allocated by Ofcom to BT in 1999.

You can verify any allocation against Ofcom's National Telephone Numbering Plan, which is updated weekly.
Is it safe to answer or call back 028 9066 7877?
Keep in mind that a phone number is a clue, not proof of identity. UK caller IDs can be forged (spoofed) by VoIP systems anywhere in the world, and legitimate numbers are sometimes hijacked for short scam campaigns then abandoned. Judge each call on its substance: a genuine organisation will happily let you hang up and call back via the number on its official website.
What to do if 028 9066 7877 called you
- Don't act on the call alone. If the caller claimed to be your bank, HMRC, a courier or a utility, hang up and contact the organisation on a number you find yourself — never one the caller gives you. For banks, dial 159.
- Never share security details. Full passwords, PINs and one-time passcodes are never requested by legitimate UK organisations on an outbound call.
- Don't return a missed call you don't recognise. One-ring 'wangiri' scams rely on call-backs, sometimes routed to premium-rate lines.
- Report what happened. Use the report form above to warn other UK users, and report fraud attempts to Action Fraud (or 101 in Scotland).
- If money or details were given, contact your bank immediately on 159 and report to Action Fraud.
