About the 01394 dialling code
01394 is the UK geographic dialling code for Felixstowe, allocated by Ofcom under the National Telephone Numbering Plan. It is used by landlines — and increasingly VoIP lines — registered to the Felixstowe area.
A full Felixstowe number is normally written as 01394 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 01394 number no longer guarantees the caller is physically in Felixstowe. Fraudsters also "spoof" local codes like 01394 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.

Is a call from 01394 safe?
Most 01394 calls are ordinary local calls from Felixstowe homes and businesses. The main risk to be aware of is "neighbour spoofing", where a scammer fakes a local 01394 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 01394 (Felixstowe) number from outside the UK, drop the leading zero and dial +44 1394 followed by the local number.
