In three steps

How it works

  1. Paste the number

    Any UK phone number. No login and no sign-up.

  2. Read what people reported

    The kind of call, the date and their own words, each person counted once, and which phone company Ofcom gave the number range to.

  3. Add your own report

    Report a call free. If you think a record is wrong, you can ask for a review.

Paste a UK phone number and see what people have reported about calls from it: the kind of call, the date and their own words, with each person counted once. The page also shows which phone company Ofcom allocated the number range to. GotMyNumber never names a private person against a number, and nothing can be paid to unlock one. It is free because adverts pay for it. A report is one person's account, not proof.

Why GotMyNumber

What makes it different

Free, with no login

Look up a number, read the reports and report a call without an account. Adverts pay for the site.

Reports, counted fairly

Each person is counted once, however many times they press report, and a report is one person's account, not proof.

The number range, from Ofcom

Which company Ofcom allocated the block to, from Ofcom's public numbering data: a fact about the range, not about who holds the number now.

Wrong report? Challenge it free

Anyone who thinks a report is wrong can challenge it, with no account and no name needed, and a person looks at it. Nobody can pay to have a report removed.

Business list checks

A business can send a list of UK phone numbers and get it back in one standard format, duplicates merged and impossible or reported numbers flagged. Quoted per record, from £0.20, before any work starts.

Better than the alternative

How it compares

The usual way
  • Paying to unlock a name that may not be right
  • A guess presented as a verdict
With GotMyNumber
  • Nothing can be paid to unlock a name, and no private person is ever named
  • What people reported, with dates, and the Ofcom range the number came from
Questions

GotMyNumber: what people ask

Is GotMyNumber free?

Yes. Looking up a number, reading the reports and reporting a call are free, with no login, and adverts pay for the site. The one paid service open today is for businesses: a phone list checked and tidied, quoted from £0.20 a record before any work starts.

A report about my number is wrong. What can I do?

Use Challenge a report on GotMyNumber. It is free, you do not need an account or have to give your name, and a person looks at it. Nobody can pay to have a report removed, so a wrong report is put right by asking, not by buying.

Will it tell me who called?

It shows what people reported about calls from the number and which phone company Ofcom allocated the range to. It never names a private person against a number, and nothing can be paid to unlock one. No reports does not mean a number is safe, and unknown does not mean suspicious.

Why are there adverts?

Adverts pay for the site, so looking up and reporting a number stays free with no login. Advertising cookies are used only if you say yes.

Can a business show a number is theirs?

Not yet: claiming a number is not open. A business that wants customers to save its number can hand out a UniversalContacts touchpoint.

Where do I check a number?

On GotMyNumber's own site: paste the number, no login.
