There are so many reasons why people search for free reverse phone number directories. Generally if people get anonymous calls or if they just want to check who you are, they will try a search. If you are already into this then you probably know that there are many reverse phone number directories online make the claim to being absolutely free.
First of all let me tell you that you "can" do a people search through these free online services, but they only consist of landline numbers. Mobile phone number searching is not available in the free directories as they do not fall under public domain and thus they cannot be accessed by traditional means.
There are reverse phone directories through which you can perform a people search by cell phone and thus not be limited to landline numbers. They create their database by negotiating with the cell phone companies for their client directories and thus due to the time, effort and money involved charge a small fee for access to their databases. There are various fee structures available across the different companies and thus you should find one that suits you personal needs.
Some of the companies only provide a pay per number structure in which they can charge anywhere from $15-$75 per individual number. If this is only time you will get a cell phone number which you don't know the owner, then this may work for you, but most will require multiple lookups overtime and thus this the most expensive option.
Other companies offer a structure where you can either pay for access to one lookup as described above or buy a membership based on time of use where during that time you have unlimited access to all the people searches that you could ever want. These memberships typically run from $40 - $200. The nice part is that the good companies will offer a money back guarantee against you not finding the proper results. This is to cover any problems with old phone records, etc.. As can happen, with people that activate and deactivate their cell phones often. A further barrier to avoid getting a bogus report is that the good companies provide a free sample report for each search and thus you can check the city, state, etc. before committing to a membership.
So now you ask, what type of info can you get from these searches? Well, it actually is quite amazing as you can get name, home address, household members and more. If desired you can then take your investigation to another level and enroll in a full background check service in which you can use the info that you found from the cell search and find out any divorce records, criminal records, warrants and more. The power of these tools are actually quite amazing.
In conclusion, my advice is that unless you are just too lazy to open the whitepages, the free directories are rather useless. If you shelling out a few measly bucks is a bit too much to find the number, then I have to imagine that it really isn't bugging you too much. Myself, I feel likes its one heck of a deal considering how many misc. numbers I get on my phone per year that I can just pop in and get answers right away. I can only imagine the value of the service if you are in need of looking up numbers on a spouse's or child's phone or even a harassing phone number. In those cases this service is a must.
