01482 is the area code for Kingston upon Hull, usually called Hull, and neighbouring parts of the East Riding of Yorkshire such as Beverley and Cottingham. Hull is a port city on the Humber estuary. It was historically served by its own municipal telephone company, which survives today as KCOM, so many local landlines are still on that network. Calls from 01482 numbers may come from Hull City Council, the East Riding council, hospitals, GP practices, the university or local firms. Numbers can be ported and caller ID can be spoofed.
Who called me from 01482?
The prefix tells you where the line was originally registered (Kingston-upon-Hull), but not who is behind it. Numbers can be ported between networks and caller ID can be spoofed, so a familiar code is no guarantee. Search the full number to see its current carrier, line type and whether other people have reported it.
