Steve Krause Posted February 15, 2009 Report Posted February 15, 2009 Question from Reader :: Ask MrGroove Email Form Hello Mr Groove, Do you know a way (website) to identify the service provider (carrier) of a cell phone number? Thanks Doug Hi Doug, I assume you read my Article Quickly Send Text Messages for Free Using E-Mail You ask a really good question which I don't have a great answer for.... I did a little GOOGLE work and found this site: http://www.fonefinder.net/ The problem is now that people can move their phones to any carrier, that site is only good up until the person moves the phone to a new carrier. For example, I tested it on my phone and it is showing my original carrier I signed up the phone with, not AT&T whom I'm currently using (iPhone.....) Hope this helps! Quote
shockersh Posted February 16, 2009 Report Posted February 16, 2009 Yeah... I think it's close to impossible to figure out the carrier now that ppl are able to move their #'s at will. Here's a few more resources you can use tho to find the carrier for mobile / cellular phones: http://www.reversephonedetective.com/ http://www.tracenumber.com/ - Gives you location and carrier and type of phone (land line or cellular/mobile) http://il-phone.info/ Basically, all I did was put the phone number into GOOGLE and about a dozen sites came up with the info.
