    Finding a phone number from an address only?

    I urgently need to contact a customer of mine. Unfortunately he gave me the wrong number. Directory enquires wont tell me the number because the address/number is registered in an other name (probably his girlfriend).

    Does any one know of anyway i can get it?

    I went through something similar and never found any other way of doing it. I'd advise sending something out in the post (you can probably make the latest 7.30pm collection slot from the larger post offices) tonight first class and at least if you do find out the number in the meantime you'll still have a backup on its way.

    There are reverse directories i have found, but they are very expensive to use

    http://www.192.com/search/

    Try different combinations as their search is not the best. Dunno how many free goes you get as they sell a CD.

    Edit: just noticed you haven't a name so it might not work.

    Tried 192. They want a £150 (paid in full) years sub to be able to search without a name

    Can't you just wait until he phones you? That's gotta be the cheapest option...

    UK Info Disk would probably do this for you, but it appears to be even more expensive than asking 192 over the phone!

    I remember having a demo years ago, but it was a bit limited in the searches you could do. If you can find one it might help?

    Yeah, that's actually a good idea. I found someone I'd lost contact details for by searching Google and finding their CV.
