Reverse Number Lookup

Hey Dudes

I was wondering if anyone would know of a program (and know where to find it) that lets you input a telephone number and when completed, it will tell you who it belongs to, can anyone offer me any information on where to find a program, apparantly its called Reverse Number lookup

I don't know of a program per se...if you google it, you will find plenty of sites that have this service.

Lots of 'em

Here's one

He's in Australia though. I use them every day and know a ton of 'em...but I don't know how plentiful they are down under.

(I don't use infospace a lot...it's not as good as some of the other ones, IMO.)

Every one I've tried, won't do cell phones.

elSicomoro · 01-23-2004, 10:40 PM

Nope...not yet. From what I understand, a directory for cell phone numbers is supposed to be coming out later this year.

I like http://www.reversephonedirectory.com

Searches multple sites including anywho and infospace.

Verizon has one too, off their main page.

We use it at work for suicide calls.

note: www.reversedirectory.com is a porn site. (associated with whitehouse.com)

no, i was looking for maybe an Australian one, if it exists, those links only looked up American numbers

Reverse number lookup is done because it is profitable. These are expensive tools created for telemarketeers. Telemarketeers, as I last understood, are not interested in calling cell phones - at least not yet.

When telemarketing to cell phones becomes practical, then money will make a reverse phone directory. A good news / bad news answer.

ugh. Telemarketing to cell phones would suck.

I would have recommended superpages.com
