1242	18		Free for National Dialing Only		(0)+10	
1242	19		Allocated	BT	(0)+10	17/03/1998 00:00:00
BT have had that range since 1998 so while you may not have had a call from those numbers they certainly aren't new.

However that last column states (0)+10 which gives a normal UK 11 digit number so generally I'd say the 0 would be at the start, but can be dialed without the 0 I guess.
