How to find a phone number by address
Often there is a situation in which the user needs to remember or find out the number of a person / organization using other identifying information. This is fairly easy to do if you know the exact address, organization name, or person's name. Today we will talk about how to find out a phone number by address and other features.
We will consider two main search options - this is a help desk and the Internet. Therefore, in this article, any reader will find a suitable way.
Find out the number using a search engine
Many people, as well as organizations, leave their contact details on the Internet. Individuals do this mainly through social networks or personal websites, blogs. When it comes to companies, numbers are usually registered with Google and other search engines. Therefore, first of all, try to find the necessary data using the address:
- Open the page of Google, Yandex or another search engine that you are used to using.
- In the search bar, enter the exact address of the organization or person. Don't forget to include the city, because in many settlements the streets are repeated by name.
- Now look at the search results. If the company is registered on the network, then Google will display information about it. Usually, the data list also includes numbers associated with this organization. You will also find out the opening hours, see the location on the map and read user reviews, if any.
The described method is best suited for searching for numbers at the address of organizations. Since this is public information, it is much easier to find it online. But with private individuals, everything is complicated. To find a person's phone, he must leave his data on the Internet: on a page on a social network, on a website, on a blog, and so on. If we are talking about a social network, his profile should be open and searchable by other Internet users. For example, if you find a person's VKontakte page by name and city, you can see his number in the description:

Expert opinion

Ask Daria It is important to have the exact name and surname of the person. This information narrows the search. If you entered the full name and address of the person, and he indicated them on the social network, then most likely the search results will be successful.
Help Desk
The second method is suitable if you have information about the person's full name or company name. Each locality has a separate city service that provides information about numbers by phone. You need to call from a landline to a special number for your region, which can be found on the Internet (the call is free). When you are contacted by a help desk employee, you will need to provide your personal information and then describe your problem. The specialist will find the right person in the database if you name his full name and registration address, if available.
However, not all callers are on the help desk list. A person can refuse the use of his personal data. In this case, the service staff is unable to help you. Also, this method is not suitable for searching mobile numbers.
There are paper directories and databases on disks (we are talking about city phones), which are sold in the public domain. The disadvantage of the option is that the information in the sources quickly becomes outdated and is not updated. But when it comes to finding landline numbers that have not changed for years, you can use this method.
Phone number database
Let's get back to the internet. On the web, you can find a number of resources that contain telephone databases, as well as all available information about associated organizations and subscribers. However, these sites are often blocked, and much of the information is not related to real people. We do not recommend using such dubious resources.

Remember that lists of mobile numbers of subscribers, along with addresses and full names, are not published on the Internet by the operator itself. This is illegally done by third-party users, collecting information from various sources.

Watch the attached video carefully before you start searching for a phone number.
Conclusion
So, finding a city number by address or full name is much easier than a mobile phone. Cellular operators do not expose subscriber lists in the public domain, and all unofficial bases are collected illegally or for fraudulent purposes. Usually such sites are quickly blocked or get into the register of prohibited resources. If a person himself publishes personal information, then you can find them through Google with due care and diligence.
