Local phone numbers for area code 01254: Great for sales and customer teams

A local phone number can instill a sense of trust in potential customers, who may feel more comfortable doing business with a company that has a recognizable and familiar local phone number.

Having a 01254 area code phone number can help your brand expand customer base in your area, as it can increase the likelihood of people in that region contacting and ultimately doing business with your company. It's also easier for your customers in the Blackburn area to contact you. When you buy a local number from Dialpad, you get far more than just a VoIP phone number.

How it works

All of Dialpad’s paid unified communications plans come with a local number included, in this case a number with a local 01254 area code. This is along with unified communications features like phone calls, video conferencing, SMS/MMS messaging and team messages, and more—all from one intuitive, easy-to-use desktop or mobile app:

Next, let’s look at why you might need a 01254 area code.

Where is area code 01254?

The area code 01254 corresponds to the Blackburn area in Lancashire, England. It encompasses several local towns, including Accrington, Withnell, and Mellor Brook.

Introduced in April 1995, the 01254 area code was implemented as part of a nationwide overhaul of the telephone numbering system in the United Kingdom.

Real-time call transcription

Dialpad’s built-in AI is built by our own team and integrated directly into the communications platform to transcribe phone calls and video meetings—in real-time. This way, you don't have to be distracted with note-taking and can give them your full attention (and Dialpad even detects highlights and action items).

Voicemail transcriptions

When you're in back-to-back meetings all day, you can't always listen to every voicemail. Dialpad's visual voicemail feature transcribes your voicemails into text, so you can quickly read them when it isn't convenient to listen to them. (It even emails the audio and text versions to you!)
