I remember picking my number in Phones4U on Vodafone. It's a gold number but the platinum's were are frozen out.Spusu and Three let you pick your number when you join them. And Carphone Warehouse still let you pick your number if you are signing up to Vodafone through them instore I believe.
An EE store will also allow this to a more limited extent. The SIM cards are pre-numbered but most staff would be happy enough to bring out a handful of SIMs and let you pick which number you like out of that selection.
EE and O2 both offer gold and platinum numbers on request too if you call and ask for such a thing. But both will charge you a lot of money to get such a thing from them.
I don’t recall Ikea’s network giving you a choice of number but it’s so long ago now I’ve probably just forgotten. Only other past brand I can think of that let you pick your number off the top of my head was Shebang Mobile. The website would throw a huge table of numbers in your face with at least 20 pages to flick through and pick whichever one you liked the look of.
Vodafone still privately sell gold numbers on their user forum.
