When we get those phone calls that hang up when the answering machine says "please leave a message " I would like to see just who the caller was. Seems like they display most landlines, but they require payment to lookup cell phone numbers.

Is there REALLY a free reverse lookup service, or is that 'just the way it is'??

411.com is free but I don't think it does cell numbers. I use it all the time. It also had a reverse address too.

if you are looking to do reverse lookups to find the CSA, I would use reversephonelookup.com or whitepages.com . I work at a cell phone store and I tend to use the first of the two regularly, but it doesnt pinpoint exactly where cell devices are

I don't know that http://411.com is likely to be any better than http://whitepages.com
I've had sites like this inaccurately tell me that my cell phone is a landline!

http://stuff4you.biz/backgroundchecks/reverse-phone-lookups/ gives good steps into finding out who called you. To be honest, there is no guaranteed way that I know of (well, if you were in law enforcement or a private investigator you could probably find out with 99% certainty)
