    The best avaiable service is surely Reverse Phone Lookup.

    You can check the website here: http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=538

    The free reverse phone lookup sites generally doesn't provide anything interesting. To get interesting information, you should spend a bit of money. The free searches do not provide much more than what can be found through the phone book or personal knowledge and they only want your email to send spam. You should stay away from shady reverse phone lookup sites, most likely you won't get any information after you make the payment. Stick with a reputable reverse phone lookup site like http://www.goobypls.com/r/rd.asp?gid=538 that has been on the market for a lot of years.

    With their reverse cell phone lookup tool you can find out information behind any cell or land line number. Type in the persons cell phone number and you will be given access to their report, including name cell and land line numbers, and address.

    It can be used also for a much deeper search. People wanting to get hold of all kinds of background reports, as well as cell phone numbers, addresses and names..

    If I remember well there are 2 options:

    Basic:

    You get only one report.

    [acabo]Advanced:

    You get unlimited reports... I went with this option because I wanted to verify more numbers. You can get the name, other phone number, address history, relatives, and much more about anyone!

    Anyway you can check on the website for further informations. Hope it helps! :)

    I don't know any way you could look up the number but you could try this: Call the number or have someone else call the number, and say you found something like a set of keys, and that the keys were returned to a store with one of those cupon cards, such as Petco, Stop and Shop, CVS etc. Say you found the keys and the number under the account was the number listed. Maybe that would work?

    Confused by your question. To clarify, you have a cell phone number - how do you know its a cell number? You want to know who it is without calling the number because you weren't supposed to see the number - is that correct? Like it was mentioned, do reverse lookup, however, if it is a cell number, it wouldn't be in any phone directory - at least up here in Canada. If you know the mobile supplier, maybe try going on that web site and see if they have a lookup for numbers.

    There isn't anything you can do about your problem except pay for a reverse cell phone look-up online because a phone provider can't tell you whose number it is do to privacy. Good luck and I hope I helped!

  • do a reverse number search on www.411.com

    try calling from a pay phone. that way there is no way to trace the call. and if no one answers maybe you will recognize the voice from the message.
