How I Stop Telemarketers With Reverse Phone Detective

I recently became quite fed up with all the annoying telemarketers calling me at all hours of the day -- it was really getting to be too much.

I told myself, "If I get one more call during dinner, I'm going to do something about it."

I did, of course, get a call that night. And since I had already broken my New Year's resolutions, I decided to follow through and really make them stop.

I was already on the Do Not Call List, but there were several telemarketers that still had my number -- probably from some contest I had signed up for. I have a weakness for shopping mall drawings; I'll drop a business card in every box I see.

It was my own fault that I was being harassed, but I still didn't like it.

I looked around for places that would take my names off the various companies' lists, but the services were really expensive. I knew there was a way to do it myself.

I tried just calling the numbers back, but I usually wound up at the noisy end of a computer, beeping and buzzing in my ear. A work friend told me that I might have success just looking up the numbers using a reverse phone number finder.

After a while, I found a Reverse Phone Detective review, it sounded like the service had a lot to offer.

The review said that with the reverse lookup I could:

  • Stop telemarketers
  • Find prank callers
  • Research unknown numbers on the phone bill
  • Find a person's address with their phone number
  • Research missed calls on my caller ID without just calling
  • Use old numbers to find new information about old friends
  • Easy reverse cell phone lookup and landline lookup

    There were a few out there that looked good, but I chose Reverse Phone Detective, and I stuck with it because it really worked. I looked up the numbers of telemarketers and the public records search and it got me the name of the company and the corporate phone number.

    I called all the telemarketers back and told them never to call again, and they didn't!
