Written by Sometimes you may want to run a reverse phone number search to get owner’s information associated with a phone number , such as name, address, etc. It will be better if you can get it without payment . But, in reality, sometimes you can get it for free, but sometimes you can’t.
In a reverse phone search, if it is a home phone number, then it is very likely you can get the information for free . But if it is a cell phone number, then probably you don’t have the good luck. Why?
Because the landline phone owner’s information is public information. People can get those information by going to some phone number directories, such as white pages or some web sites. When a user is signing up for a home phone service, the phone company will always ask if you want to remove your information from the public directory by paying an extra fee. Most likely you will say “no” in order to save money . Therefore, your name and phone number will be listed in the public directory . When people run a reverse phone number search by entering your phone number into a phone directory, they will find it for free.
If you are signing up for a cell phone, the cell phone company won’t put your information in the public phone directory. But this doesn’t mean it will keep your information as a secret. It may sell your information to other reverse cell phone search companies, which provide provide paid services to the public. Your information is still listed in some directories. Others can’t find your information in the free public phone lists even if they have your cell phone number. They need to pay the fee to run a reverse cell phone number lookup in order to get the information .
