I know that the telephone directory works the opposite to this in that I have to supply a name to get a telephone number and address.
But if I was to tell you someone phoned me on my mobile from a Manchester number recently, would any website be able to tell me the name and address of the person/company who called me as I'd like to know who it is before I call them back in case it is a wrong number.
Hope someone can tell me the answer to my query soon.
Many Thanks.

No.
Data protection act 1998 (as ammended) blocks such information from being given out. This is for many reasons, more so, to protect the safety of ones personal details.
So answers no.
Unless a crime has been commited, then police can track the number and get details but wil lnot give you them.

Get a No Cost Background Check Scan at https://bitly.im/aNGep
Its a sensible way to start. The site allows you to do a no cost scan simply to find out if any sort of data is in existence. A smaller analysis is done without cost. To get a detailed report its a modest payment.
You may not realize how many good reasons there are to try and find out more about the people around you. After all, whether you're talking about new friends, employees, doctors, caretakers for elderly family members, or even significant others, you, as a citizen, have a right to know whether the people you surround yourself with are who they say they are. This goes double in any situation that involves your children, which not only includes teachers and babysitters, but also scout masters, little league coaches and others. Bottom line, if you want to find out more about someone, you should perform a background check.

A reverse cell phone lookup service I have used is http://reversephone.toptips.org
Enter the number in the system and they will tell you a lot of informations about the phone number and the person who owns it.
If they have extra details you will have to pay for the report.
Free reverse phone lookup sites generally don't provide anything interesting. To get further information, money will have to be paid. The free searches do not provide much more than what can be found through the phone book.
The best thing is that you can get informations about anyone!!

Enter the number in google - it has a reverse directory built in it. If it has a record for that number, it will show up at the top.
If you received a call with no message left, maybe it was a telemarketing or a junk call. Try http://800notes.com/ - a database of unlisted numbers supplied by the users who received spam calls from those numbers.

I don't know about a web site but I often use the latest UK Info Disk, available from the site below.
This allows reverse number search, Electoral roll search and will even tell you the details of the people at the address and their neighbours.

reverse phone number search compiles hundreds of millions of phone book records to help locate the owner's name, location, time zone, email and other public information.
Use a reverse phone lookup to:
Get the identity of an unknown caller.
Identify an area code.
Recall the name of a person whose number you wrote down.
Identify an unfamiliar phone number that shows up on your bill.

Acutally I would like to see a forum similar to Yahoo! Answers that would REQUIRE the information that you're talking about... I would also like to see real monitors enforcing the rules and getting rid of trolls.. By requiring real name, address, and phone number information a lot of the trolls would go away.. They like the way it is now so that they can "hide" behind their computer monitor and not have to be held responsible for the content of their questions and answers and for false reporting. Anyway, that's my opinion... By the way.. I starred the question... I think it's a good one... And no, you don't owe me 10 points for saying that... :-)

This is known as a reverse telephone directory or reverse lookup, which is unavailable and sometimes illegal in certain countries.

it is called DATA PROTECTION ACT and it is not legal for anyone to give such information out to the public, only the Police and various other government branches are exempt from such restrictions
