Reverse Phone Number - Find Names and Addresses

What is a reverse phone call service? If you see a phone number on your phone bill, caller id or missed calls, and you want to know who is the owner of that number - that is where this service comes into play. If you have the full phone number, along with the area code, the reverse phone call services allow you to enter that number. Viola! you'll discover the owner of that number.

There are many reverse phone call services on the internet so you are sure to find one most suitable for you. In the old days of land line phones, it was pretty easy to go the phone company website and do a reverse search for that number. As long as the number was published, you could normally find out who the owner of the number was. Today, most people use cell phones - and that has made the process of doing reverse phone call lookups harder. Cell phone numbers are now portable - people can keep their number when changing cell phone providers. So now we have a large group of numbers that are not listed in the traditional phone directories. Having said that, you should avoid using free reverse phone services. The reason is that free services only collect information about landlines, and no caller will use landlines if he wants to hide his identity. This is why a paid service is more recommended, and even a paid one is much more cost-effective compared to the service of a private investigator.

Certain services are paid because the task of arranging the data from all the mobile companies is very tedious and requires huge amount of time and effort. Paid services exist offer the clients a complete detailed report about the name, address and location of the owner of the number. Prices of the services vary and range in between expensive and affordable depending on the type of information being extracted.To find the names and addresses of any phone number, reverse phone number lookup services such as iReversePhoneNumber.com are recommended.

Is it Possible to Lookup a Cell Phone Number for Free?

Is it truly feasible to run a free reverse cell phonephone lookup on the internet?  Many of us have become disillusioned and annoyed during the past with internet sites which appear to offer free services online but in reality don't.  Can it also be used for cell phonephone searches? 

Firstly let us inspect exactly what we define as a telephone number lookup.  If you have a residential or mobile phonephone number but no idea who the number belongs to or what address it relates to you may use a “reverse lookup” service to discover those details.  This can manifestly be extraordinarily useful in eventualities where you have lost contact with someone but still have a record of their telephone number, or would like to verify who owns the number before by mistake phoning the incorrect number.  There are many places you can perform such residential and business phonephone lookups online for free, including toll-free numbers. 

However a problem occurs when you want to run a reverse lookup on a cellular phonephone as the free directories do not contain any such numbers.  Similarly they don't contain fax numbers as this info is only held by the carriers and telecommunications firms.  Do these records exist, and are they free? 

The good news is there are websites which are able to offer enormous numbers of cell phonephone numbers, but they're not free of charge.  These websites clearly have to pay for access to a few of this info, and go to the considerable trouble of pulling all of the varied resources together in one place, and as a result you'll be charged a small fee before you can get access to the lookup databases.  However the charge is an one off payment and with some websites you can run as many searches as you like once you have access, with others they provide a single lookup for a lower fee.  The records they claim to supply include cell owner details, address history, carrier details, and the telephone connection status.  It is also worth noting the databases offered by each company differ to some level, but most include cell telephones and often residential, business, toll-free, even pagers, and these websites say your searches are assured legal and confidential. 

In addition to reverse lookups there are similar web sites which offer access to info like background probes and background reports, people finder databases, bankruptcies, liens, public documentation databases including births, deaths, weddings, divorces and adoptions, sexual offender records, police records, and much more.  These sites operate in the same way, supplying access to particular types of information for a set fee, however it should be observed that you will not receive access to such information as part of your cell telephone lookup site membership. 

There are many websites claiming to provide free cell lookups, but they mostly lead at last to the paid sites in the final analysis, even allowing folks to hunt for free and then charging to view the results .  It's the unhappy truth that the only place where you are sure to find detailed reverse cell records is within the legitimate paid directories.  In conclusion, the answer is no, free cell telephone lookups do not currently exist.  However if you actually need to access such records then I suspect paying a little may be worth it.
