“Finally free landline phone numbers!”

Nancy S.
3/20/19

Thanks! Finally was able to find a landline phone number for free when none of the others would give it to me without paying. (i. E. whitepages & peoplefinder) I understand about cell phones, but not public landlines & addresses. Got your site bookmarked for future requirements & do not mind paying for additional information if needed.

“What happened”

This used to be a very good site to find people and get a land line number or address with map. Now you must enter the exact full name, you cannot just enter a last name and zip code. They block out the last four digits of the phone number and there is no longer an associated map. I would be willing to pay a reasonable monthly or annual fee for the service as it was a year ago. This was a very good information source but no longer.

Years ago, this was my go to site for reverse phone lookups, etc and it was wonderful. You put in the phone number and BAM! You had your results. Unfortunately, this site was taken over by Intelius which is the biggest pain in the $#*! ever! If you "fall for" putting in all the extra information you have, you then have to pay for a "report". I really wish Anywho.com would have remained independent, because now it's like all the other sites that want you to pay for a generated report. Sigh

In terms of free people seaches anywho did a pretty good job but anything helpful requires using Intellius and a credit card, I still don't get why you have to pay intellius for reverse cell phone information when u look it up on anywho who has it but makes you go through intellius. Why is it so hard to get a new address from Verizon when you have the name and the old AND new cell phone number?

Bet you cant name one thing that ATT has improved service on in the last 10 yrs! Everything they touch is for more ADS, more short term profits to benefit the MBAs (who get paid with options) and running the company into the ground! This is NOT the way to run a business for shareholders! They sold Anywho to Intelius m They burdened DTV with Ads & reduced programming then sold it to Discovery Channel. For the few subscribers that stayed... 4Million left and they raised the price on the remaining few... tsk, tsk no loyalty there. They killed off@ home before it started because they refused to put a true 'Fiber optic network' to compete with Verizon FTTH network FIOS. ATT is a 'shell' of its former self, waiting for it to implode like GE did it is coming. Everything it has touched has gone to HE__ wonder why their stock keeps declining...

This site is not free like it pretends to be. I should have known after I had to give them my name and address, then it took me to the place where you have pay almost ten bucks. I am sick of sites that pretend to be free but isn't. If you are going to charge, say so,

I've been using AnyWho.com for years now; I most often use the site for the "reverse lookup" service. I find the site to be easy to use and have never had issues with bugs, non working links or general issues some sites have. They may not be the greatest if you're into looking really deep and researching a ton of information, but for the most part the site does exactly what it says and stays current with new trends. I'm always happy with the results.

Used to use the AnyWho website religiously in the past. I was a middle school teacher and occasionally sent correspondence from home to parents & students (b-day cards, encouragement notes, etc... kids loved actual mailbox mail). Getting home addresses was a breeze and reliable. AnyWho was a fantastic and reliable resource. Hadn't used it in a few years, that is, until now. Need to send a mailing to a guy that'd completed some yard work. He lives in my town, I know the street, just needed verification of street number. Search results gave me a NOT FOUND notice. Tried again with his name, street, town, zip... same thing. Sooo... I entered MY name and address. Damn results came up with a NOT FOUND for myself! Don't waste your time on this search site. What had been a wonderful resource is now time wasting trash. This site merits a negative star review if available.

Tip for consumers:

Most of the time when I try Anywho, I get a message that they can't find any information. Why? I think they're just trying to sell a more expensive service.

Now it is a purchase ploy. Used to be a great site. Not anymore. We didn't have to pay for the information which was far more accurate. Now have to pay and usually does pan out

While Anywho may get you basic information and be reputable, If you want more info they will send you to another site ran by Intelius for more in depth information. Intelius is a scam. They bury extra charge billing information behind asterisks. You have to click on a link that takes you to another page that shows the true billing charges. I thought I had paid 95 cents for a basic phone number. A month later I am being billed 29.95 for a monthly subscription that they add on themselves. Anywho should dis-associate themselves with Intelius if they are to be viewed as reputable.

Nothing's perfect in life, but I like this site because I can get a quick fix on someone without jumping through hoops. You might have to pay a little for some "in depth" info on a fella'.
