An unknown phone no. keeps appearing on my caller display - how can I find out who it belongs to?

Question

Having had problems in the past, I'm wary about who I answer the phone to! Thanks guys.

Answer 1

Ring the number from a Phone Box, but not a local one. Or if you are still worried, Get a friend to ring for you from their phone. Hopefully you will find out whose been calling and put your mind at rest. Good luck

Answer 2

I suggest this service: http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=538

It's a cheap service that works great! It could be used for a much deeper search. You can use it to get hold of different varieties of background reports, and in addition cell numbers, addresses and names.. you can get unlimited reports... I ran with this because I required to verify more numbers. You can get the name, other phone number, address history, relatives, and much more about anyone! The completly free reverse phone lookup generally doesn't provide anything interesting. To get interesting information, money will must be paid. The free searches don't provide considerably more than what may be found through the phone directory or personal information and they simply require your email to send spam. The reverse phone detective search tool does work, but you should use just the service that I posted above. The last thing you want to do, is pay for a service and find the numbers you want to lookup are not available in their directory.

The service that I reccomend doesn't have any kind of problem , you won't get any bad surprise! Trust it!

Answer 3

If the person calling doesn't speak or is abusive/threatening BT can help with number display so even if the caller dials your number with a 151 (block number display+1471) you can still see their number.

Answer 4

If your display says "unknown caller" there is nothing you can do! *69 won't work....here...just have a friend answer the phone...

Answer 5

Try reverse lookup on Anywho.com. As long as the number is not unlisted or a cell phone it will give you the name and address of the preson who owns the number.

You can call it and see who answers.... or you can do a reverse look up on the number thru your phone company.
