Do you mean a reverse search? I don't think such an animal exists for cells, unless you're willing to pay for it - and even then, the results would be spotty. Cell numbers are pretty much like unpublished number at this point.

Della When you look up a number on that website, after it searches for the number it tells you it is $4.95 - or something like that - to get the number.

I see that it does Sylvia it does tell what location (city) the # is from, as far as the #'s I used. But your right it would be better to use one that tells who it is linked with.

When I put my husband's cell phone number in, it gave Mims, Fl as the location. Mims is quite a distance from Palm Bay. It is north of Titusville. So, it doesn't give you a true location. No idea why it gives Mims. I thought maybe it could be something to do with the cell towers. But there are cell phone towers here in Palm Bay.

The location you get is where the number is registered...
... not where it's being used. Cell numbers are registered at a central location, which could be many miles from where you bought and activated the phone.

That is weird that it would be registered in Mims. I could understand Melbourne or Titusville. Mims is a small town.
