About the 01737 dialling code
01737 is the UK geographic dialling code for Redhill, allocated by Ofcom under the National Telephone Numbering Plan. It is used by landlines — and increasingly VoIP lines — registered to the Redhill area.
A full Redhill number is normally written as 01737 XXXXXX. You can dial the local part on its own from within the same area, or the full number from anywhere in the UK.
Because of UK number portability and internet calling, a 01737 number no longer guarantees the caller is physically in Redhill. Fraudsters also "spoof" local codes like 01737 so an unknown call looks like a nearby business or neighbour — so treat an unexpected call on what is actually said, not on the area code alone.

History of the 01737 code
The code was 0737 until PhONEday, 16 April 1995, when a "1" was inserted after the leading zero to create 01737.
In the letter-dialling era the code had the mnemonic RE7 — on an old rotary dial, the letters RE (from Redhill) sat on the same holes as the digits 737, so subscribers literally dialled the start of the town's name.

Is a call from 01737 safe?
Most 01737 calls are ordinary local calls from Redhill homes and businesses. The main risk to be aware of is "neighbour spoofing", where a scammer fakes a local 01737 prefix so you are more likely to answer. Never share bank details, passwords or one-time security codes with an unexpected caller, even when the number looks local — hang up and call the organisation back on a number you have verified yourself.
To call a 01737 (Redhill) number from outside the UK, drop the leading zero and dial +44 1737 followed by the local number.
