In the UK market, text messaging, social media marketing,Before WhatsApp contact or outbound phone calls, many companies will encounter a common problem:The number format is correct and the channel is open, but the delivery failure rate is still high.This is not a problem with the delivery system, but a key step has been ignored——Operator number validity check.
The UK has several major operators such asEE, Vodafone, O2, Three), different operators assign different number segments, have different usage habits, and the numberHigh recovery rate and frequent changes. If validity testing is not performed before launch, the following problems will inevitably occur:
lA high proportion of numbers have been deactivated or canceled
lVirtual accounts are mixed with real accounts, and social account registration is restricted
lThe delivery cost increases but the conversion rate does not improve
lLow outbound dialing rate and waste of labor resources
Therefore, complete carrier number detection in advance to identify which numbersavailable, real, active, has become the basic action of the British local reach strategy.
2. What are the specific steps involved in carrier number detection?
Many companies are interested inThe concept of "detection" is vague, and it is believed that detection is simply to determine whether the format is correct. But actually,A truly useful detection process should include three levels:
1. Format specification identification
Determine whether the number has a valid prefix, length and structure by comparing it to British Communications Standards.
For example, UK mobile numbers usually end withIt starts with "+44 7", but there are still a lot of false or misspelled pseudo-numbers.
2. Operator identification
Identifying which operator the number belongs to will help in subsequent accurate distribution on different channels.
In some business scenarios (such as SMS delivery platforms), operator ownership will directly determine channel selection and cost settlement strategies.
3. Status judgment
This is a key link in testing. Determine whether the number is: through the operator's real-time interface:
lService has been activated
lCurrently online
lCan be used for SMS, voice, and social platform registration
It is recommended to access this partOperator number detectionAPI interface, in order to achieve automated batch identification and improve processing efficiency and result accuracy.
3. What situations indicate that your number pool needs"Sifting round"?
The following are some common signs of failure to reach you, indicating that your UK mobile phone number resources need to be systematically screened:
lWhatsApp registration fails frequently, prompting "Invalid number"
lPrompt after dialing the phone"Non-service number" or empty number
lThe delivery rate after delivery is less than50%, or even a large number of code hopping failures
lThe customer service outbound call team reported that the call connection rate was lower than expected and the call experience was poor.
lThe feedback of the same batch of numbers in different channels is inconsistent, and the background data is difficult to review
Once these phenomena occur, you should not continue"Relying on guessing" to determine whether a number is good or bad, you should conduct a comprehensive screening through format verification + status detection as soon as possible.
4. Practical guide: How to detect the British operator number?
1. Organize number library
First make sure that each item in your phone number list contains the complete international format (e.g."+447123456789"), remove exceptions such as starting with 0, spaces, special characters, etc.
2. Upload files to the testing platform
Using the console of a platform such as Digital Planet, you can uploadNumber list in CSV or Excel format, automatically completes number parsing, format cleaning and detection tasks.
3. Enable status detection service
If you already have a development team, it is recommended to directly access the operator number detectionAPI interface returns detection results in real time, making it easy to write directly into your own CRM, delivery system or outbound call platform.
4. Export test results for filtering
Numbers can be classified according to the returned fields, for example:
lOnly keepNumber with "Status Active" and "Owned by Entity Operator"
lCullVoIP number, unknown status, deactivated number
lField labels can be added for subsequent strategy stratification (such as distribution on different platform channels)
5. After the test is completed, how to use the results to improve conversion?
Detection is not the end point, but the starting point for optimization actions. The following are recommended usages:
lShort message/Voice sending platform: Distributed to corresponding high-quality channels according to number ownership, saving delivery costs
lsocial media marketing: Only active account segments that support registration or bound social accounts are retained to improve the success rate of account creation.
lWhatsApp batch addition/address book import: Eliminate unavailable numbers and reduce the probability of account blocking and the number of failed transmissions.
lTelephone sales team: Give priority to dialing verified active numbers to improve the call completion rate and communication efficiency.
If your number is mixed with a large number of invalid or non-compliant British numbers, whether you are sending messages, adding friends or making calls, it will slow down the overall efficiency and may also affect the account reputation or channel stability.
6. Which users are Digital Planet’s testing services suitable for?
Currently, Digital Planet’s UK operator number detection function is suitable for two types of users:
1.No development team
Tests can be uploaded through the console and formats can be obtained on demand.+Status results, supports export of Chinese and English reports.
2.A team with system integration requirements
Can be connected to operator number detectionAPI interface embeds the detection process into internal business processes, such as pre-registration verification, pre-delivery filtering, outbound call list sorting, etc.
7. Conclusion: Testing is not a cost, it is the beginning of savings.
As a country with standardized communications architecture and a mature number allocation system, the United Kingdom appears to be unified on the surface, but in fact the differences are dense in details.
If you want to improve reach efficiency, you cannot rely on the mobile phone number itself."Appearance" judgment requires the use of professional platforms to complete real and dynamic number status identification.
If you have a batch of British numbers to be cleaned, or the past delivery effects are always unexplainable, you might as well do a carrier number test first. Maybe the answer to the problem is hidden in this link.
