A good service will have an easy to use interface and a large database of records that makes sure you find what you want. So how do you know which ones are better? Here we review 3 leading reverse phone search services.

Phone Detective

Phone Detective is one of the pioneers in the reverse phone search market. It not only helps people find address by phone numbers, it has also helped countless individuals find the identity of their prank callers. Phone Detective has a very simple user interface. Once you enter the number and do a search, the system will first tell you whether the number exists in the database. This is a good feature because that means you do not have to waste money paying for the service if the phone number you are searching for cannot be found in the database. The next step will require you to pay. You can choose whether to only access the full phone report or gain access to unlimited people searches.

Full Phone Reports include up-to-date information for (when available):
• Phone owner name
• Current street address
• Line type - landline or mobile
• Phone company / carrier
• Issuing location with map
• Previous addresses

Phone Detective has come a long way in the area of reverse phone search and it is currently the leader in the market. Besides, it costs less than $20 for a full phone report. This is one service you should definitely check out when you are trying to find address by phone number.

Verdict: 5/5


Cell Phone Registry

This service probably contains one of the largest database of phone numbers out there, be it landlines, mobile or private numbers. The service allows you to do a people search by not only the phone number, but also by name, city and state.

Many users were able to track down their prank caller because of the huge database of cell phone numbers. Some prank callers think they cannot be tracked when they use cell phones. They could not be more wrong. Also, the search by name feature comes in handy when you are trying to locate a long lost friend.

This service while not as simple to use as Phone Detective, offers the biggest database of records to help you find address by phone number.

Verdict: 4/5


Phone Number Scan

Phone Number Scan’s interface is also pretty simple and easy to use. It is also slowly receiving more recognition although not as much as Phone Detective. It does not have the same huge database as other services.

There are 2 types of membership: 1 year access or life time access. The difference in the 2 is about $20. While it is not a very big difference, you probably don't need a lifetime membership unless you are not a private investigator. So for ordinary folks, the lifetime membership could be a little overkill. Having said that, business owners who want to do a background check on their prospective employee may find the lifetime membership to be more value for money.

Phone Number Scan is comparable to Phone Detective in terms of ease of use but contains not nearly as many records.

Verdict: 3/5
