History Of 0121 Birmingham Numbers

Birmingham’s 0121 area code dates back to “PhONEday” in 1995, when the old 021 code gained an extra 1 to increase capacity. The city’s original 021 code was introduced in the 1960s, making Birmingham one of the first UK areas with a distinct dialling identity. The 0121 format allowed for more local numbers as the region’s economy and population expanded, and it remains a key part of the West Midlands’ communications network.
