A number such as 07624 561 234 could be active on any of the four UK mobile networks — EE, O2, Vodafone or Three — or any of the dozens of MVNOs (mobile virtual network operators) that lease capacity from them, including Tesco Mobile, Sky Mobile, giffgaff, Smarty, Lebara and Voxi.
This block — 07624 56 XXXX — was allocated by Ofcom to Sure (Isle of Man) Limited in 2018. Sure (Isle of Man) Limited either operates the numbers directly or sub-allocates them to resellers and downstream carriers, which is why a single 07624 56 XXXX prefix can be used by many different organisations. You can verify any allocation against Ofcom's National Telephone Numbering Plan, which is updated weekly.
The HMRC-impersonation scam continues to be the most-reported telephone scam in the UK, and blocks like 07624 56 XXXX are sometimes spoofed for these calls. HMRC will never threaten arrest, demand payment by gift card or cryptocurrency, or use a 'press 1 to speak to an officer' menu. If in doubt, hang up and contact HMRC on the number printed on their gov.uk page.
If a 07624 56 XXXX number called you and you're not sure who it was, the safest steps are: don't return the call until you've verified it (search the full number online first), don't share personal or financial details, and register the number with the Telephone Preference Service (TPS) if it's a marketing call. Persistent unwanted calls can be reported to Ofcom and the ICO. To block a specific number on most UK mobiles and landlines, you can also enable network-level call screening through your provider.
