About reverse phone lookups

A reverse phone lookup helps you find out who owns a phone number. You start with a phone number, and the tool looks through big lists of phone records to find information. You can learn things like the owner’s name, where they live, the city or zip code, and sometimes their address. This works for home phones, cell phones, and even phone numbers that use the internet (VoIP).

Our phone number lookup tool lets you search millions of records, including over 19.9 million phone records and 3.39 million comments about spam calls. You can use this tool to try and find out who called you from an unknown number. You might learn the caller’s name, address, how old they are, or even why they called.

Why you might search a phone number

When you do a reverse phone search, you can learn a lot more than just the caller’s name. You might find their social media usernames, email addresses, where they live, names of family members, and more. We have already done over 32 million phone searches! Here are some reasons people use our tool:

  • You met someone online.
    Sometimes, people don’t tell the truth on dating sites. If you have their phone number, you can use our tool to check their real name and who they are.
  • You want to find an old friend.
    If you have a friend’s phone number, you can look up where they live now. You might also find information about a house they own, like if it was sold, and its history.
  • You’re buying or selling something online.
    When you are dealing with people online, it’s important to make sure they are real. You can look up their phone number to help avoid being scammed before you send money or an item.
  • You want to check if a landlord really owns a place.
    If you are texting someone about renting a house or apartment, you can look up their phone number to see who owns it, and make sure it matches the property records.
  • You get a call or text about an online order or a package.
    Sometimes, scammers pretend to be from Amazon or UPS and try to trick people. If you aren’t expecting a delivery or didn’t order anything, look up the number before responding. Never click links if you think it’s a scam.

Is there a free reverse phone lookup?

Some basic information about phone numbers is available for free. You can use our Free Carrier Lookup tool to see things like who provides the phone service (like AT&T or Verizon), if it’s a cell phone or a landline, and the general area where the number is from. If you want to find out more about the caller, you may need to use paid services.

    I clean carpets for a living, and once in a while I'm running late for a cleaning appointment; I then realize that I don't have the most-current phone number for my customer so I can let her know that I'm still coming. Been Verified usually has the current phone number and my day gets a little easier. Thanks!
