The 02827 area code is used for Ballymoney (County of Antrim) and the areas directly surrounding Ballymoney, which includes 3 distinct locations. Most 02827 numbers are used for landlines. However, they can also be purchased by companies or organizations to be used for services that don’t have any connection to the Ballymoney area.
Previously, the area used 012656 as their area code. This changed in April 2000 during The Big Number Change, where it was changed to the 02827 area code to accommodate the growing population and supplement the shrinking supply of phone numbers in Antrim.
