Reverse Phone Number Look Up – What is the difference between landline phone and cell phone?
Monday, August 3, 2009
Sometimes people would like to run a reverse phone number look up to get owner’s information associated with a phone number , such as name, address, etc. It will be better if you can get it without payment . But, the actual situation is , sometimes you can get it for free, but sometimes you can’t.
In a reverse phone number look up , if it is a home phone number, then it is very likely you can get the information for free . But if it is a cell phone number, then probably you don’t have the good luck. Why?
Because the landline phone owner’s information is public information. People can get those information by going to some phone number directories, such as white pages or some web sites. When you sign up for a landline phone (such as your home phone) , the phone company will always ask if you would like to pay some extra fee to remove your information from the public list . Most likely you will say “no” in order to save money . Therefore, the public directory will include your private information. When people run a reverse phone look up by entering your phone number into a public directory , they will find it for free.
When you sign up for a cell phone service , the cell phone company will not release it to the public . But this doesn’t mean it will keep your information as a secret. The cell phone company may have partnership with other reverse cellphone look up companies, which provide provide paid services to the public. Your information is still listed in some directories. Others can’t find your information in the free public phone lists even if they have your cell phone number. But they can pay and run a reverse cell phone number search to get the information they want.
