Free Reverse Cell Phone Lookup

Does free reverse cell phone lookup on the internet exist? In the past, plenty of people become so disappointed and frustrated with websites that show that they provide free products and services online but the truth is they do not. Is free reverse cell phone lookup the same case? The first thing that we should do is discuss what phone number lookup means. If you have residential phone number and you don't know to whom the number belongs to, you can conduct reverse lookup service in order to gain information behind the phone number. Reverse lookups are necessary for people who have lost contact with an individual but still have record of the phone number or you want to know who is behind the phone number, you can also verify the person who owns the phone number. If you want to perform reverse lookup, there are plenty of places that you can conduct residential and business phone lookups online and these are free of charge. When it comes to cell phone lookup, a problem arises, since the free directories do not have such numbers. These free directories do not have fax numbers as well since only telecommunication companies are the ones that possess such information. Most people are wondering if free reverse cell phone lookups do really exist. Do these records exist and are these free of charge? Luckily, there are websites that can offer you huge numbers of cell phone numbers, but these search services are not for free. Actually, these websites have to pay in order to gain access to this information and go to through substantial trouble of getting all the different resources to come up in a great result that you need, so they will charge you with little fee before you can gain access to the lookup databases. With this paid search service, you can obtain lots of information such as cell phone owner details, address history, carrier details, and the phone connection status. These websites typically say that your searches are confidential and you they can guarantee you to have accurate and exact information. There databases can includes cell phones plus residential, business, toll-free, and also pagers. With these paid search services, you not only conduct reverse cell phone lookups but you can do background check and can gain instant access to criminal report; sex offender check; lawsuits, judgments, liens, and bankruptcies; home value and property ownership; 30-year address history; relatives, associates, and neighbors; marriage records; and more.

Free Cell Phone Reverse?


Elizabeth Knightly Business/Business 2008-05-04
View Detail
Despite the obvious truth, people are still marketing the mythical free cell phone reverse. It seems to have never occurred to the consumer that companies are not going to pay money to advertise a free service, cell phone lookup, or otherwise. Yet the scam continues.

We have gone over this many times, but in case you've just joined us, here is how the free cell phone lookup scam works:

A company (usually one who does not provide a real cell phone number search service), places a plant article or a cost-per-click ad advertising a free cell phone search. The consumer who wants exactly that but can't find it anywhere (because it doesn't exist), eagerly clicks to ad, and is then transported to a nice, clean looking site with a search box wherein the cell phone number she needs to have reversed is to be entered. At last, she has found what she needs.

Perhaps she is trying to catch her cheating husband once and for all. Maybe she has been getting harassing calls and needs to identify the source. Whatever the reason, she needs to identify a cell phone number, and finally, someone is offering that service for free!

First of all, the ability to lookup a cell phone number and obtain the owner's name and address from a search box on a website means there is a database of hundreds of millions of cell phone numbers somewhere-from every cell phone carrier. Yes, people actually believe that the cellular phone companies are going to give each other their customer's names and addresses. Hint: no such database exists, and never has. There are some databases, like those that possess information gathered information from the credit bureaus, that might contain some cell phone numbers, normally because some person has listed their cell phone number on a credit application at some point. But this hardly qualifies as a cell phone number depository.

So back to the target of the scam.

This poor woman, desperate for the name and address from the cellular number, inputs the digits, as instructed, and presses "Enter." The fraudulent site displays some BS meter, to indicate that it is searching every database on earth. In a few seconds, she is told that the information has been found, and she should proceed to the next page to access it. She does. Now one of two things happen:

1. The next page explains that the information is almost hers, but it must be purchased after all. A low price is offered, and she is reminded that the answer to all of her questions is just a couple clicks away. In fact, the info has already been obtained, she just needs to access it. It is right there, just out of reach. So she pays. And having not read the paragraphs of fine print, she is unaware that the databases searched are those explained above, they are collections of data, but certainly not a cell phone directory, and-no surprise, the info is not there after all.
But she still paid for the possibility that it was there. No refunds from this scam-the fine print explained it all. As bad as that sounds, this is worse:

2. After clicking to proceed to the page where the cell phone number search results are supposedly displayed, the customer is forwarded to a completely different website, normally one of the few that actually provides real-time investigations of phone numbers. Here the customer has the option of paying for a service from a different site, that they thought they just paid for. This often has the consequence of making it appear as though the legitimate site-the owners of which have nothing to do with the scam site, and do not know they are involved-is part of the con.

This is exactly how "free cell phone lookup" scams work. If you want an actual investigation of a number, and need to find the current name and address from a cell phone, you must order such a search from a company that does not use databases or offer "instant results."

Choosing your own cell phone plan


You already have your very own cell phone. Now you need to choose the cell phone plan that is the best for you. Choosing your cell phone plan is like choosing your activity for your cell phone.
The manner of choosing your cell phone plan depends on how you expect to use your cell phone. Whether itâ€TMs for business or just for ordinary communication, you must choose the cell phone plan best for you.

Cell phone plan usually has a set of numbers called peak minute and an unlimited number of off-peak minutes. Peak minutes are usually sold in blocks and this is mainly the main feature of cell phone plan options of the different providers.

Most cell phone plans has a free mobile-to-mobile minutes, which means you can avail of free call to others with the same cell phone plan providers with you.

Keep in mind that the exact start and end times for peak minutes varies from provider to provider. If you think your usage falls somewhere in between two cell phone plan blocks, think wisely and pick the plan with more minutes, because overtime minutes are more expensive and can add a large sum to your cell phone bill.

If youâ€TMre the type of user that uses cell phone only on evenings and weekends, then you should avail of the cell phone plan called off-peak or also known as “night and weekendâ€� minutes.

Some cell phone service providers have a long-distance free call. So if you have relatives in far places, better avail this cell phone plan so that youâ€TMll not anymore use your landline in calling them. If you want to avail this plan, make sure that it includes enough off-peak minutes for your talk time or else youâ€TMll be paying overcharges, which makes the free long-distance calls useless.

If youâ€TMre always on the go and like to travel, you must avail of cell phone plans which offer wide range of roaming areas. Roaming areas are areas outside the cell phone providerâ€TMs coverage area.

If youâ€TMre outside the providerâ€TMs area, it does not mean that your not have the providerâ€TMs services. Itâ€TMs just that other providers in the area will handle your call. Usually, calls made from roaming services are much expensive that ordinary calls. So, try to look for cell phone plans with wide range of roaming service.

A family or shared cell phone plan may be a good option for you. This cell phone plan can cause you less each person in the family. All you have to do is visit the website of the service provider and look for the option for "family plan" or "get 2 phones" that appears on most cell phone offer pages.

For cell phone users who plan to use their phones only in emergencies, or those who don't want to undergo the cell phone provider's credit check, a prepaid cellular plan can be a good option as well. However, both the cell phones and the per-minute costs are lower with a service contract of one or more years.

There is a wide range of cell phone plans. All you have to do is choose the right plan for you. Itâ€TMs better to study first the different cell phone plans of different cell phone providers to have the best cell phone plan or you.

The only place to find reverse cell phone numbers is within the legitimate and paid directory sites.

Free cell phone number lookup does not exist, however paying a small fee is worth to get this information.

For a small fee you can do as many database searches as you like.

You will have access to:

  • address history,
  • cell owner details,
  • carrier details and
  • phone connection status.

The database includes

Before You Grab a Free Cell Phone


Aaron Siegel Internet Business/Shopping 2007-12-22
View Detail
As with most things in life, nothing is truly free and that includes cell phones. Instead of a free cell phone, why not just buy one?

Unless a family member hands you an activated cell phone and announces it as a gift, you will more than likely learn that no cell phone is free. You always see the advertisements for free cell phones being offered on the Internet and on commercials however there is no such thing.

Okay, so maybe the phone is free however there is a catch as is usual with most things. This catch is called a contract. Service contracts are the life blood of any cellular carrier and as long as they can entice you into that contract they will continue to offer newer and more cool "free phones". Now, I'm not saying carriers are evil or deceptive, but you must become more conscious of your consumer behavior.

Depending on your needs and uses of a cell phone not all free phones are created equal. You may want to ask yourself exactly what you want from a cell phone before leaping into a free cell phone contract. Ask yourself if you are going to want to text message a lot, check email, surf the web, take pictures, or how big of a calling list you are going to have on your cell phone.

Each cell phone will have it's strengths and weaknesses which may include ear piece sound quality, speaker phone quality, mega pixel quality (for both viewing and taking pictures) as well as other features you may want to utilize in a cell phone. It may make more sense to buy a phone instead, but don't be swayed by the possibility of actually paying for a phone based on retail pricing, there are still benefits to forking out some extra cash for the cause.

Buying a cell phone may not be as drastic an option as you might think, and to be honest, you are more likely to have a better quality phone for it in the long run. The reason many higher end phones aren't free is they actually do have higher quality standards in the manufacturing process that allow for more reliable voice and Internet communications. The best part is, if you are going to be getting a new phone and going into a new 2 year contract, you can get a great discount on a higher end phone in place of a free phone. Trust me, the carriers don't mind giving a heavy discount to get you into the contract with their calling services. Remember, it is the contract they make their real money from.

So depending on what you plan to use your phone for, it may make sense to spend some extra cash to get the phone you really need and want. Most importantly though is what carrier you choose. What good is a cell phone without the right area coverage? Consult with friends, family, and colleges in your area and ask them what carrier they prefer or wish they used for their area. The answer may not always be what you would have expected, so ask. Never ask a carrier sales person themselves due to the fact that they are after your money. You might not get an honest reply.

There are many different types of phones out there, and who knows maybe a free phone is what will work best for you, however a little bit of research can go a long way. Do a bit of digging and get the most for your money aka contract.

To shop cell-phones.html>cell phones on the Internet you can visit http://www.topsavings.net/cell-phones.html or to shop for other phone services and Internet access you can visit TopSavings.Net on the web. TopSavings.Net offers business and residential communications globally online.

Reverse Lookup Cell Phone - Free vs. Free


Zip Robertson Society/Dating 2008-02-18
View Detail
Ok, so you have a number. You have no idea who this number belongs to and you wish to find out. You take a seat at your computer and decide to do a reverse lookup cell phone search. You log on to the internet and type the words in to an internet search engine. And there you have it - thousands of results. Which one should you choose? There are ones that are free and ones that charge. Surely the free ones would be better? Not necessarily so!

See, the thing you have to bear in mind when visiting these free reverse lookup cell phone websites is that you very rarely get anything for free! Ok, you might be lucky, and I will admit these free sites are good if you have a residential number that you wish to look up. You can quite often get perfectly good results for a residential number. The problem arises when you start looking for a cell phone number. See, a lot of these free directories and databases just don't have the facilities available to hold details for cell phone numbers. The only people that can have these sorts of records are the service providers etc. of the phone.

Another problem you will come in to contact with when trying to perform a free reverse lookup cell phone search is that the search itself might be free, but more often than not, it will ask you to pay for the results, or just direct you to a site that does charge when it realises that the number is a cell phone number. When that is the case, you have just wasted your own time and effort searching for a number that you simply cannot get without paying for the results.

The websites that allow you to do reverse lookup cell phone searches generally require you to sign up and pay. You may have to pay a certain amount per search you do, or per ten searches, for example. There may even be a monthly fee, but whatever the amount of searches that you wish to do, there will be a site and a payment plan to suit you. Once you are signed up and all paid, then it has never been easier to get the results you want and a lot of the sites that you do pay for offer a one hundred percent money back guarantee if they cannot provide details for the number you have requested.

At the end of the day, you get what you pay for and if you don't pay for the reverse lookup cell phone number search, you are only going to get a limited amount of detail back, if at all. Unless you wish to be disappointed, it might be better off just finding a paid site that suits you and the number of searches you plan to do. At least that way, and especially with the money back guarantee, you will get the details and information you want, or get your cash back and try again with another site if that's what you choose to do.

There are pro's and con's for both free and fee reverse lookup cell phone sites, but in my opinion, you would be much better off going for the ones that you have to pay for rather than risking time and effort on the ones that you don't!

Free Reverse Cell Phone Lookups


James Kern Home Family/Home Family 2007-12-04
View Detail

Free reverse cell phone lookups are pretty easy to do but hardly ever yield correct and up-to-date results. Today, I want to show you how to perform a free reverse cell phone lookup using totally free resources such as Google and MySpace.

This method of finding people's details just by searching for their cell phone number relies on the "target" listing their details on the Internet, which means there is a high probability the information you find, if you do find any, is likely to be wrong or out of date. But because this is a free method, there's no harm in trying, right?

To begin with, you need to ensure the cell number you have is a valid one. I normally do this just by typing it into this paid reverse phone lookup to see if any results come from it. The likelihood is that if the number doesn't appear on this tool, then you've likely got the number wrong.

If you look for the number using that website, and find it to be valid, then you can then move onto the next step - seeing if the number is available on the Internet anywhere. To do this, you just have to head to Google and then simply type the number in this format: "xxx-xxx-xxxx" where x is a digit of the number. You should type the number in quotation marks to ensure that Google ONLY finds results with that exact subject in.

When you hit search and pull up the results for this number, you will quickly see what kind of information is available to you. HINT: The most relevant results will appear at the top of the results pages. This means that if you don't find any information on the first two pages, then you're likely not going to find any with that search.

This works by searching Google for the exact phone number in any webpage. Because we're looking for information with the phone number, we want to find any webpage with the number in to enable us to see what the "target" has been listed on.

If you can't find any results this way, then it's time to move onto more inventive methods of finding your person. This, for me, would include looking on MySpace for the number, to see that the target might have posted it on there. If this doesn't bring back any results, then you need to try other sources such as Yahoo, MSN and Facebook.

You should also try using BoardTracker, a tool which searches thousands of forums, to bring you records of where cell phone numbers have been mentioned in forum conversations.

At the end of the day, if your target has listed their information online and you are able to find it then that's great. You will quickly learn whether it's possible to find a person's details freely online depending on the amount of results you get for your various searches. The problem with this type of search is that even if you do find the information you want, you have to look at how you will know the information is correct and how up-to-date it is.

I strongly recommend this Reverse Cell Phone Lookup which makes searching for people's details with their phone number so easy.

Controversies on the Emergence of Free Cell Phone Directory


wyatt Society/Society 2008-01-14
View Detail
There is much controversy governing the emergence of free cell phone directories in the mobile world. Many are against it, while other finds it useful and beneficial. The implementation of U.S. free cell phone directory led to a lot of speculations from mobile phone users which led to arguments on its advantages versus its disadvantages.

Reverse cell phone directory is a system feature wherein you can enter a cell phone number in a database program and it tells you the name and other related information pertaining to that cell phone number. A reverse cell phone directory is also a useful tool if you are searching for the cell phone number of a particular person like a neighbor, a friend of your daughter or a work mate.

Although cell phones are usually equipped with a phone directory where you can store all important numbers and contact numbers of family members and friends, there are instances wherein a free cell phone directory will come in handy. Instances wherein you missed a call on your cell phone and the numbered that registered happened to be not in your cell phone directory, a free cell phone directory can be of help in tracing the person associated with that particular number. These are some of the advantages of the implementation of reverse cell phone directory.

While there are some cell phone subscribers that appreciate the principle of free cell phone directory, there are some people that are against it. Concerns such as maintaining privacy is the main issue. The idea of having their cell phone numbers easily accessible to the public is bothersome for a lot of cell phone users. Cell phone numbers are supposed to be personal. It is a way of getting hold of a particular person first hand without having the need to call a common phone in the office or a residential landline. Another concern is that a public database such as a free cell phone directory makes it easy for telemarketers to contact people. Many people hate the idea of being bothered by telemarketers from time to time. Free directories also increase the chance of anyone to receive crank calls.

With all the controversies governing the implementation of free reverse cell phone directory, other people do not oppose it at all finding it necessary and useful. They find the idea of having free cell phone directory similar with that of typical directory offered for regular land phones wherein pertinent information can readily be accessed by browsing through the pages.

Cell Phones and the Games They Play


Christine Peppler Communications/Mobile Phones 2007-12-05
View Detail
If most of us were to think about it, we would probably name our cell phone as the most useful device we own. Certainly a car is indispensable for the millions of us who neither live within walking distance of everything imaginable nor have direct access to an active rail system, but a cell phone performs so many functions and costs so little in comparison that every other gadget and belonging is suspect of significant under achievement. Indeed, with a good cell phone plan, the phone itself is often completely cost free.

From placing calls from virtual anywhere and at any time to surfing the internet and checking e-mail cell phones are certainly work horses for many of us. Of course, there is another face to these tiny devices. Increasingly entertainment functions have been assumed by these same gadgets. From shooting pictures, watching video, and enjoying favorite tunes they are now part of our repertoire of diversions in our busy lives.

With increases in memory, connectivity, and screen capabilities other functions have been taken on for the entertainment of users. One of the emerging favorites among cell phone owners is the capability of playing games. Recent reports indicate that hardcore gamers aren't the only ones to make use of this function. Many cell phone owners are finding the joy of using cell phone games to take the bite out of a long wait whether between classes, in a long line, during a commute, or simply a break in activity.

The games available for use on a cell phone vary from simple card games, trivia, puzzles, memory and logic challenges, to sports and adventure types of games. The complexity of games continues to increase as 3D games and games requiring connectivity with other players begin to take center stage with more experienced gamers. Although many users enjoy simply challenging themselves to the basic games, others prefer to interact with others during play via Bluetooth connectivity or texting while others take the next step and engage in online tournaments.

For those who wish to experiment with cell phone games getting started is very simple. Most cell phones now come with some basic games embedded in them. These games have no cost and do not use up precious cell phone plan minutes so the enjoyment is there for the taking. Other game options are available of course on line and can be discovered by doing a simple search on "mobile phone games". Downloading from a site is simple and quick although there is usually a fee of course. Most sites offer downloads for a monthly charge in the neighborhood of $4 to $6 or an annual fee which offers greater savings.

Certainly, most of us won't be converting to hardcore gaming but the simple diversion of cell phone games may be a justifiable and cost effective form of entertainment that is already available on our hard working cell phones if we choose to make use of it.

Free Cell Phones – How to Get a Fair Deal


David Hensely Communications/Mobile Phones 2007-10-21
View Detail
A consumer might be offered with freebies when he is about to purchase a cell phone. The freebies range from free software, free games, free ring tones and even free cell phone handsets. The latest in the freebies galore is the free prepaid cell phones. Due to the intense competition among the cell phone manufacturers and the service providers, free prepaid cell phones are offered to lure the customers as bait. Normally the freebies are offered only once. When the customers ask again he is charged with fees. The freebies are only an attractive proposition by the cell phone companies and service providers so that they stay loyal customers for lifetime after getting hooked to their offers.

Free cell phone games:

The most famous freebies among the above are the free cell phone games all over the globe. Many leading cell phone manufacturers are very sure that consumers are ready to spend more money just to play games on their mobile phones. It has also been proved to very large extent. The cell phone gaming industry is growing at a faster pace and the new games get outdated within a week’s time. The software developers too are working hard to make the cell phone games very realistic to make them popular. Heavy competition among the cell phone manufacturers and service providers too are making the cell phone games famous by offering them free of cost as a promotional activity. Hence free cell phone games are here to stay for a while at least.

Free softwares:

Cell phones are becoming very sophisticated and are emerging as hand held personal computers. Obviously they should have high-end software in them which can be either downloaded or from a retailer or sometimes comes along with the cell phone itself as a preloaded software. Most of the cell phone soft wares are given as freebies. Such soft wares have a wide range of utilities like the ring tones programmed to the user’s specification, managing data on the phonebook, graphics compatibility etc. Imaging software is also popular for shooting and sharing pictures using cell phones with ease. Soft wares are used for SMS and MMS. Such freebies if not got with the cell phones can be easily downloaded form the Internet.

Polyphonic ring tone freebies:

There are many websites offering wide libraries of polyphonic ring tones for free, which can be downloaded on to the cell phones easily. Certain sites not only offer free ring tones, but also offer free screen savers, logos and other cell phone accessories as special promotions. Before getting the freebies, the user should know whether their cell phones are compatible enough to download and store them. Care needs to be taken while getting the freebies from the cell phone companies and service providers, as they require the customer to enter into a contract to receive such offers for free. If the contract is broken the customer may have to face penalties or high monthly fees. Some cell phone companies provide free airtime minutes, which should be known and used carefully, as otherwise the consumer may end up paying more than what he thought.

Free Cell phone Lookup: No Such Thing


Elizabeth Knightly Business/Business 2008-05-04
View Detail
Anyone searching the web for free cell phone number lookup is sure to find hundreds of hits to the phrase. But the initial excitement is sure to fade once they start clicking the links. The reality is that is order for anyone to offer a free cell phone number lookup service, they would have to access a database of all cell phone numbers. And no such database exists.

Unlike regular, "landline" phones, cell phone numbers in a given area code can belong to three, five or even twenty different mobile phone companies. Even if one or two companies decided to publish a list of their customers, this would still only be a small percentage of the people who have cell phones. But no cellular phone company is going to publish their customer list.

Cell phone service is a huge industry, and very competitive. Just look at all the ads on TV begging customers to change from one service to another. Does anyone really think a cellular service provider is going to publish their customer list so another company can market them?

There has been talk of a cell phone directory, but the cellular companies were against it, and so was the public. People don't want to let salespeople and telemarketers have their number. Imagine how quickly your cell phone minutes would be eaten up by solicitation calls if anyone who wished could get your cell number? Some people think the national Do not Call Registry would prevent sales calls. They are wrong.

The Do Not Call List-like most government ideas-hasn't worked very well. But even if it did, those rules wouldn't apply to sales calls from companies you already do business with, like loan offers from credit card companies, finance companies and other lenders, your current cable TV company, and others.

People simply don't want anyone who wishes calling their cell phone all the time, disrupting work, irritating them during meals, as using up air time. For these and a variety of other reasons, the cell phone number directory is on hold, probably permanently.

Without this directory, there is no way anyone can really offer a free cell phone number lookup. Without access to a database of cell phone numbers and the corresponding information, someone would actually have to do a custom investigation on each number. This takes time and effort. How could any company really do this for free?

But without the database, and without a real way to offer the free cell phone number lookup, why would so many websites advertise the service? A simple marketing ploy.

Sites advertising free cell phone searches rely on the would be customer's need for the info. They provide a phone search box wherein potential customers input the cell phone number to be searched. The fake page pretends to be searching billions of records for the corresponding name and address info, followed by a dramatic pause, with the final payoff being an assurance that the info was found. Oddly enough, the information is never available for free. But for the customer, the temptation s too great not to pay. After all, the info has been found, they are told. It is just behind the curtain.

Most customers pay. And often times the site then performs the actual, non-automated investigations, which can take from hours to days. But the worst offenders charge the customers and then provide nothing but a link to other, unrelated websites who legitimately perform cell phone number search investigations.

It should be obvious now that not only is a free cell phone number search lookup an impossibility, but likely a scam as well. Anyone who needs to identify a cell phone number will have to pay a company specializing in such research.

CellularTrace.com offers this service at the lowest price on the web. But no matter what company is chosen, consumers are cautioned to make sure they choose an investigative agency that does not obtain any info from old, outdated sources, but rather custom research every number and return only current, accurate, verified name and address information.

Free Reverse Cell Phone Lookup Misleading Or Outright Scam?

Is there a FREE reverse cell phone or unlisted phone lookup service?

Many places online advertise FREE cell phone lookup services , but in actuality the only really beneficial no-cost directories to be found are of landline phone numbers. Why is this? Because for a very long time, landline numbers have been openly published. The phone companies consider cell phone numbers to be private and are reluctant to release those numbers. Also, your cell phone bill is usually based on time used. Knowing that their customers don t want to waste usage time, the cell phone companies refuse to publicly provide cell phone numbers.

So, you won t get much useful information from these FREE services if you re looking for unlisted or cell phone number information. You can get some very general information from some of them, but not the name and address of the owner of the number.

Recently I desperately needed to put an end to some obscene phone calls from a sicko unknown caller. For about a couple of weeks, I had been receiving calls from a no ID number. When I answered the phone, the caller said nothing but started panting and making sexual grunts and sounds. I found these calls frustrating, annoying and a little scary. The frequency of the irksome calls began to escalate on a daily basis.

Finally, I did call the police who told me that there wasn t much they could do since no actual crime had been committed. The police did tell me that I could call my phone provider and give them the exact time of the call or calls and that my phone provider would probably give me the originating phone number. This information did help somewhat, but since the calls were coming from a cell phone, I still didn t know who was making the aggravating calls.

Armed with the cell phone number of the persistent culprit caller, I fired up the old PC and began to search the Net for the elusive Free Cell Phone Lookup Service .

Googling for a Free reverse cell phone lookup service is a maddening counterproductive activity, that is if you re looking for real information like the identity and address of an obscene caller. Here a click, there a click, everywhere a click, click I clicked every FREE Cell Phone Lookup Service that I could find only to discover a dead end with each subsequent frenzied click of the mouse. Basically, I got a large dose of the Online Runaround, something almost everyone has probably experienced at one time or the other. Every so-called FREE service that I tried eventually led me to a paid service costing from $4.95 up to $14.95.

Some free cell phone lookup websites do exist, but they offer only limited information about a number. These sites "decode" cell phone numbers to help you determine the issuing location, carrier, and other publicly available information.

In general, you'll be able to find out whether the number belongs to a cell or a land line, what mobile service provides the number, and which city and state the cell phone number comes from without ever paying... but the actual name and address of the registered user of that cell phone number won't be available (unless you get extremely lucky). I wasn t lucky!

After a couple hours, I finally got the message, the only way I was going to put a stop to the stinking phone calls was to use a premium paid cell phone lookup service. Paid reverse Cell phone directories are created manually by large companies who collect the information from various services. The process of compiling and creating these databases is very expensive and time-consuming which is why there is a charge for the information. I guess they have to pay their bills too!

A word of caution A large number of sites have popped up on the Internet offering cell phone lookups for a fee. Considering the limitations of these services, the fees can be very steep. Some companies actually have tried to "skip" the process of building cell phone databases. These services just give you a list of services that sell these lookups and disappear when you ask for a refund. That money will just disappear, and you'll be back to your search... so why not go "straight to a proven source" from the beginning?

There are a number of reputable Reverse Cell Phone Lookup Services online that offer a money back guarantee service. The best services give customers free search assistance and are backed by a 100% no-quibble, no-strings attached guarantee. You re either satisfied or you re not and if you re not, then you don t pay. Period!

After checking with Phone Reverse Lookup Review and http://ConsumbersGuide.Org, I used Reverse Phone Detective with very satisfactory results. Considered the Grand Daddy in reverse cell phone search, their website has the largest phone directory in the U.S with approximately one billion records. I gave Reverse Phone Detective a whirl and bingo, bingo, bingo; they found the cell phone caller name and address. Additionally, they found his race, age, marital status, civil records, and criminal records.

This was really more information that I was looking for, but now I had the information I needed to confidently put a stop to the annoying phone calls. I called the guy up right from the phone he had been calling me, he evidently recognized my caller ID because I never heard from him again. If he had answered my call, I could have told him that I have completed an investigation and that I now know who he is, to stop calling my number, or I will take immediate legal action. Knowledge is power isn t it?

While free cell phone lookup services may be appropriate if you're only looking for very general information (like the phone issuing location), you won't find much information that will help you if your object is to identify the psycho who is calling you repeatedly. If you're serious about determining who is calling you, then use a premium paid service.

In conclusion, there are some Free Cell Phone Lookup Services on the Net, however these services provide only limited general information. For the most part, their claims are misleading if you want to find the accurate cell phone owner information. There are rare instances where you might actually get the owner s name and address, but as a usual course of events you will be directed to a paid premium site for that pertinent information.

Free Reverse Cell Phone Lookup – Possible or Not?


Davion W Technology/Technology 2007-12-01

Free reverse cell phone lookup raises a number of questions. Is it really possible to find a cell owner’s details online for free? What services should you use? How accurate is the information?

Theoretically, yes, you can find what you need – a person’s full name, address and other personal info – using a cell phone number. Practically, how successful you will be depends on your wish to spend time, effort and money. Since we are talking about free reverse cell phone lookup, it is mostly about your time and effort. And good luck, of course.

Free reverse phone number search is pretty much lottery-like. Forget free online phone directories – they don’t list cell phone numbers; without spending a penny, the only choice you have is to try and find a person on your own.

Start with Google as a major search engine. Enter the number and see if it returns any results. Try a few variations – use spaces, dashes or dots to separate the figures. Try searching the number in quotation marks as well. There are quite a few of possible variants, and the more searches you run the more chances to succeed you have.

Unfortunately, even if your search does return plenty of results, they may not contain the information you need. There is also a chance that the information is outdated or even incorrect. For example, if the person you are looking for left his/her cell phone number on a site, but provided a nickname instead of full name, that is what you get as your search result. Free reverse cell phone lookup works only in case a person has voluntary posted his contact details online (sometimes, without realizing it, though).

Needless to say, the entire process is time consuming and tiring. If you really hoped to find the information you needed, spent a few hours, but came out with zero results, it can be very frustrating. To avoid all this, you could simply use a paid reverse cell phone number lookup and collect all the necessary data within seconds.

There are plenty of companies on the Web that offer paid services in reverse cell phone number search. You can be charged per search or successful result, monthly or yearly, or even once for the lifetime. Some websites are reputed phone number directories with huge database and customer satisfaction guarantee; phoney sites are there as well and they are just waiting to rip you off.

A good legitimate reverse cell phone lookup provider will not only tell you who owns the number, but a bundle of other useful information including the person’s background, civil (and, in some cases, even criminal) records, etc, so you can investigate that mysterious cell phone number professionally and effortlessly.

The Not So Free Cell Phone


J. Kirby Computer/Computer 2007-12-03
View Detail

We have all seen the advertisements the shout out FREE CELL PHONES! Well a famous economist once said that there is no such thing as a free lunch. Now I will tell you that there is no such thing as a free cell phone. Yes you heard right, cell phones are not really free. In fact, companies use the term free to persuade customers to sign long-term contracts for cell phone service. Is the phone really free if there is a catch? NO, you just end up paying for it over the term of the service contract that you are required to sign.

Another reason that reduces the value of the free cell phone is the fact that many of the free cell phones are usually the older models that the service provider could not sell. You will notice this one you get the cell phone and find out that it is a less than desirable phone. Nevertheless once the contract is signed, you are stuck with the cell phone you received. If there is a need to purchase a replacement phone, it is usually going to cost.

Many cell phone users have found themselves in a contract they cannot wait to end. However, most contracts are designed to serve for two-year period. It seems that these contracts are so lengthy and filled with fine print that it would take a team of legal advisors just to cut through it all and offer a down-to-earth translation of the terms. All of the fine print, the clauses, extra fees, and anything else that benefits the big businesses and leaves the consumer out in the cold are there in the fine print. If you want to end the contract early, be prepared to pay a steep early termination fee. You can be sure that an early termination fee of up to $300 is included somewhere in the fine print in the contract.

Another problem with the contracts is that whenever you end one contract and wish to continue your service, the service contract needs to be upgraded because the service provider probably will no longer offer the lower priced services that you originally signed-up for two years ago. Upgrading a contract can lead to more airtime, text messages, multimedia text messages, internet usage, etc., all of which you may or may not use but will still have to pay for. In addition, as the phones progress and new functions are added to the devices, the need for new plans and contracts consequentially follows. Although, these functions are fun, they are ultimately costing you more and more money. If you have ever added up all of your cell phone bills for the year, many will find that it can make you think twice about what you really need and what you should have done.

So keep on mind that although cell phones are advertised for free almost everywhere you look, the fact is that cell phones are far from being truly free. The reality is that you are just paying for the free cell phone over the mandatory two-year service contract period.

A Quick Guide To Free Cell Phone Promotions


Craig Thornburrow Computer/Computer 2007-11-20
View Detail

Any person who has looked for a new cell phone service has seen that many of these service providers offer free cell phone promotional give away items. This is, of course, a great way of pulling in new customers who may have not sided with the specific cell phone service if given the choice between competing cell phone services.

Regardless of what a company is selling or offering, providing something for free will surely attract attention and draw in potential customers. Granted, some people will be a bit leery about a free promotional gift and this is understandable.

Of course, there will always be concerns among people that the cell phone will be a sub par item. This is a valid concern and anyone who has such a concern should be commended for thinking outside the box and realizing that just because something is free does not necessarily mean that the item is truly worth anything.

However, if one is dealing with a reliable cell phone service or distributor, then such worries should not be much of a concern. Sure, a little concern is understandable, but the reality is that these companies have far more to lose by offering a cheap phone for free that will not actually work as opposed to offering an expensive phone that will be incredibly reliable.

First, of the company offers a free phone that turns out to be unreliable, it will probably kill any future business that the person who was burned by a free phone that ended up malfunctioning or breaking within a ridiculously short period of time. When the company provides a free phone as a promotional item, they are attempting to reel in a potential lifetime customer in a manner no different from the way cereal companies offer toys at the bottom of the box.

If the company ends up hurting their image by providing a poor quality free give away item, then the company is shooting itself in the foot and defeating the purpose of providing the free item. So, the free phone will more than likely be quality items that the consumer can rely on.

So, it is definitely worth it to give a company that is providing a free cell phone promotion a try. When the opportunity to save money or make money is presented, it should never be ignored. When people shop around for cellular phone service, they usually look for a company that offers competitive rates on minutes and service location.

It should be simply academic that people will also opt to select the services that will provide free gifts as well and a free cell phone is certainly a free gift that would be appreciated.

Beware of Free Cell Phone Number Search Scams


Elizabeth Knightly Business/Business 2008-05-04
View Detail
Despite the obvious truth, people are still marketing the mythical free cell phone reverse. It seems to have never occurred to the consumer that companies are not going to pay money to advertise a free service, cell phone lookup, or otherwise. Yet the scam continues.

We have gone over this many times, but in case you've just joined us, here is how the free cell phone reverse lookup search scam works:

A company (usually one who does not provide a real cell phone number search service), places a plant article or a cost-per-click ad advertising a free cell phone search. The consumer who wants exactly that but can't find it anywhere (because it doesn't exist), eagerly clicks to ad, and is then transported to a nice, clean looking site with a search box wherein the cell phone number she needs to have reversed is to be entered. At last, she has found what she needs.

Perhaps she is trying to catch her cheating husband once and for all. Maybe she has been getting harassing calls and needs to identify the source. Whatever the reason, she needs to identify a cell phone number, and finally, someone is offering that service for free!

First of all, the ability to lookup a cell phone number and obtain the owner's name and address from a search box on a website means there is a database of hundreds of millions of cell phone numbers somewhere—from every cell phone carrier. Yes, people actually believe that the cellular phone companies are going to give each other their customer's names and addresses. Hint: no such database exists, and never has. There are some databases, like those who gather information from the credit bureaus, that might contain some cell phone numbers, normally because some person has listed their cell phone number on a credit application at some point. But this hardly qualifies as a cell phone number depository.

So back to the target of the scam.

This poor woman, desperate for the name and address from the cellular number, inputs the digits, as instructed, and presses "Enter." The fraudulent site displays some BS meter, to indicate that it is searching every database on earth. In a few seconds, she is told that the information has been found, and she should proceed to the next page to access it. She does. Now one of two things happen:

1. The next page explains that the information is almost hers, but it must be purchased after all. A low price is offered, and she is reminded that the answer to all of her questions is just a couple clicks away. In fact, the info has already been obtained, she just needs to access it. It is right there, just out of reach. So she pays. And having not read the paragraphs of fine print, she is unaware that the databases searched are those explained above, they are collections of data, but certainly not a cell phone directory, and—no surprise, the info is not there after all.
But she still paid for the possibility that it was there. No refunds from this scam—the fine print explained it all. As bad as that sounds, this is worse:

2.After clicking to proceed to the page where the cell phone number search results are supposedly displayed, the customer is forwarded to a completely different website, normally one of the few that actually provides real-time investigations of phone numbers. Here the customer has the option of paying for a service from a different site, that they thought they just paid for. This often has the consequence of making it appear as though the legitimate site—the owners of which have nothing to do with the scam site, and do not know they are involved—is part of the con.

This is exactly how free cell phone lookup scams work. If you want an actual investigation of a number, and need to find the current name and address from a cell phone, you must order such a search from a company that does not use databases or offer "instant results."

Cellulartrace.com is one such site. Their investigators perform real-time, custom research and obtain your information themselves—no scams, cons, or "databases." If we can help you identify a number, please visit us at http://www.cellulartrace.com.

Free Reverse Cell Phone Directory – Does it Exist?


Davion W Communications/Communications 2007-10-18
View Detail
Perhaps one of the more commonly asked question by people is whether there is such a thing as free reverse cell phone directory. Their hope is that there is one such directory online which they can use to carry out reverse cell number searches for free. The truth will be a disappointment to them as the so-called free reverse cell phone directories online are not able to give them the results they are searching. Read on to find out more.

In order to perform an accurate reverse cell phone lookup, you need to use paid services in order to find that. Those directories that promise they can do so for free are likely to be making misleading claims. The fact is they are either only offering numbers of land lines or at best able to allow you to look up the carrier or issuing location of the phone number but never the owner. The whole idea of the reverse search becomes a meaningless exercise since you are searching for the owner after all.

Why a Free Reverse Cell Phone Directory does not exist at all?

This is a question that has an answer. All the free directories that offer reverse lookup for free are offering details of land line numbers only. There is a clear distinction between land line numbers and cell phone numbers – the classification of the information. Your home telephone number is classified as information under the public domain. This has been a practice for decades now.

This is the reason why no one has ever come to you for permission to publish your telephone number in the phone book. In case you do not know, you need to pay a fee in order to exclude or get your name unpublished or unlisted from phone books.

Cell phone numbers on the other hand are regarded as private numbers. This plus the fact that you are being charged for each call and the duration of call makes it even more important not to make the number easily available. Else, you will have no end to receiving unsolicited calls from telemarketers or just about anyone whom you do not wish to speak to. This is one of the core reasons why it is therefore not easy to trace cell phone numbers.

Heard of Wireless 411 Directory?

Some years ago, there was some buzz in the telecommunications market about consolidating a reverse cell phone directory. All the cell phone service providers would then contribute all the databases so that the directory can be made accessible to anyone. However, for the obvious reason of safeguarding the privacy of individuals, the whole idea was laid to rest.

That said, it would seem improbable for anyone to put together a reverse cell phone directory. Fortunately, it can be done and already has been done by several established online portals. It was and will continue to be a monstrous effort trying to compile and update millions of phone records manually. Since much input and updating is required, such a service is not free. But it is not expensive in case you are wondering. For a low fee, often less than $40, you get to use a reverse cell phone directory.

There are several of such directories in the market. Not everyone has the same comprehensive database except for one. Find out from my search blog to discover which reverse cell phone directory is able to find you the details you need and do so with a 100% guarantee.
