What's the History Of the 0117 Area Code?
April 1995: Bristol's 0117 area code was created on 16th April 1995. Prior to this date, the UK dialling code for Bristol was 0272. The reason for this change was due to a shortage of unique numbers on the old area code.
So in 1995, on a day dubbed 'PhONEday', dialling codes starting with 0 were changed to start with 01, and the city of Bristol's numbering changed from 0272 XXX XXX to 0117 XXX XXXX. Changing the area code and extending the subscriber number from six to seven digits allowed increased provision of new phone numbers in Bristol. Especially useful for new businesses and startups opening in the area.
