How Can I Look Up a Phone Number for Free?

Phone Book
The phone book has been around for a long time, and even though most phone book companies had to establish strong Internet counterparts to survive, the printed phone book is still a good option to use for finding a phone number for free. The printed phone book is broken up into the white pages for residential, blue pages for government and yellow pages for business. The phone book also has maps of the local area, listings of all of the emergency phone numbers you will need and in some cases coupons that can save you money when you buy a product or use a service.
Internet
The Internet has become one of the premier sources of information for people all over the world. Not only can you use websites designed for looking up phone numbers to find the person or business you are looking for, you can also use the major search engines to find a company website. When you are on a company website you can find the phone number to the department you are looking for, and it is all at no charge to you. If you would like to make your Internet phone number look-up experience truly free, then do your searching from a computer at the library where you can access the Internet without having to pay the bill.
Business Directory
If you spend any time at your local supermarket or shopping mall, you may have noticed publications offered for free that list businesses of all kinds. Sometimes you can find free publications that list people within a specific industry such as real estate agents or lawyers. These business directories are a good resource for finding information on a company along with their contact information. Similar to the phone book, these publications sometimes offer coupons and specials that you can redeem when you call.

How do I Obtain a Business Cell Phone For Free?

1. Show your private cell phone bills to your employer. If you are frequently using your personal phone for business use, you need to show your bills to your employer. Your employer may not realize how frequently you use your personal phone for business purposes.
2. Ask your employer to get a business cell phone based on the cell phone bills. According to MCL 408.484 law, an employer cannot request that workers use their private cell phone for business purposes.
3. Suggest a cell phone allowance, if your employer is concerned about the budget of the cell phone. You can even suggest that a contract is made between you and your employer that outlines the conditions and usage of the business cell phone.
4. Ask the employer to purchase the cell phone for you, so it becomes a business expense rather than a personal expense. Since you are getting a business cell phone for free, you should not make requirements as to model type or brand.
5. Be flexible if your employer asks to see any phone calls or bills. If your employer finds that the bills are higher or the allowance is spent quicker than expected, he or she may want to check the bills to ensure the contract is being upheld and followed.
