Verizon Reverse Lookup Service

If you're being billed for calls to a phone number that doesn't look familiar, or if a strange number is calling your cell phone and using up your monthly minutes, you can use the Verizon reverse lookup service to find out who the number belongs to.

Just visit their site, enter the number you wish to lookup and you'll instantly receive the name and address of the person that owns the number. Sounds like a pretty handy tool huh?

Unfortunately, while the Verizon reverse lookup service is free and does help track down information on some phone numbers, it has some major flaws that keep it from realizing its full potential.

The main problem is that it only pulls information from a limited pool of numbers. They flat out say on their website that the search only includes residential numbers. But what if the number you need to lookup is a cell phone? Or a business number? Or an unlisted number? Or even a fax number? You're out of luck.

Another problem is that they blatantly tell you that the information could be wrong and they take no responsibility for the accuracy of the information. Well thanks. But why even bother if the information is probably wrong to begin with?

What you should do instead is use a reliable paid reverse lookup service. After all, it only costs a few dollars to run a search on a phone number. Plus they offer a money-back guarantee so if they can't find any details on the number it won't cost you a dime.

Also, unlike the Verizon lookup service, paid lookups have access to cellular, business (including faxes), and unlisted numbers so you're virtually guaranteed to find what you need.

So I say forget the Verizon reverse lookup service. The only reverse telephone lookup service I recommend can be found at Reverse-Telephone-Lookup.com. They even let you run a basic search for free. You only pay when once you know you have the information you need. Check them out now before you forget.
