Calling Macclesfield from a 01625 number

Local presence gives a floor a number in the area it's ringing, so a call to Macclesfield shows a 01625 number rather than one from wherever the business happens to sit. It's an add-on from £49 a month; whether a given code is available depends on what carriers hold at the time, so it's worth asking rather than assuming.
