Answer 3

I suggest this reverse phone lookup service: http://reversephone.toptips.org

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.
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!

Before Mobile Number Portability was created, i.e. being able to move to an different operator with your existing number, each operator had a range of phone number. So you could identify the operator by the first 4 digits (providing you knew about the allocation). Now that the portability is on there is NO logical way to find out. Only possible way to find out is to reach the voice mail of the user and if he has the standard welcome message then you could identify which operator it is.

Answer 6

The giveaway there was the phrase "mobile number" not "cell number" but thanks for the useless input from the USofA.

To give you the answer to the question, the only thing you can really tell is where the number originated. Since number portability was introduced allowing you to take your number to another operator there isn't a definitive way. However you can normally narrow it down by listening to the ring style when you call the number. If it goes ring ring ring ring it's Vodafone or O2, if it goes riiiiiiiiiiing ring ring ring it's Orange T-Mobile or 3.

Answer 7

Not really now. When mobiles first became popular, providers had blocks of numbers, like Vodafone was 0789 and Cellnet 0781 (just an example!) but that doesn't happen now.

Answer 8

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.

Answer 9

yeah, compare the numbers to some of your friends cell numbers and see the first 3 digits (AFTER the area code) matches any of your friends. Then see what service provider they have and there you go! For example, my friends that have 994 numbers are verizon customers, the ones that have 269 numbers are cingular, ect.....
