ReverseLookup Reviews

Summary: Had a tenant applicant provide me with a callback number that looked fishy. Used ReverseLookup, and the name corresponded to the applicant’s name.

Positive: Finding out who the unknown number belonged to was smooth sailing. Entered the number, and the full name, related addresses, and even social media handles appeared in seconds.

Negative: The FAQ page could use a video tutorial for new users.

Summary: Did a search on a number for a person selling concert tickets on Facebook Marketplace, and the report showed that their identity matched their profile. Felt much safer doing the transaction.

Positive: The structure of the reports is honestly excellent. Each part, from identity to digital footprint, is well and truly sectioned off, making it easy to locate exactly what you are searching for.

Negative: One thing I would like to see is the ability to export or download a PDF copy of the report.

Summary: Continued to receive voicemails from a number claiming to be my bank. Used it here and the name was not associated with any of my bank branches. Definitely prevented a phishing scam.

Positive: Used a suspicious number on the phone search and immediately found a name associated with several fraud complaints. The organized results made it very easy to evaluate.

Negative: The loading animation pauses for a second before displaying results, which was just a slight delay.

Summary: A friend of mine started dating someone new from a dating site and asked me to look into them. Ran the number through this and the Reverse Lookup report came back clean - no red flags.

Positive: The quick results are the best part of this. Ran five different numbers and all of the results came back in under fifteen seconds with names, emails, and location history.

Negative: Would be great to have a dark mode for viewing reports late at night, to be honest.

Summary: this random number has been calling me twice a week and i finally decided to look it up. it was a pharmacy reminder that i had forgotten that i had signed up for.

Positive: phone number lookup always gave me the correct name and location for every number i looked up. it also loaded quickly and was easy to read.

Negative: filtering or sorting previous searches isn’t super intuitive at the moment.

Summary: Scanned a number that appeared on my partner's phone from a job ad, and the report told me it was a legitimate hiring company.

Positive: The public info scan provided me with very detailed and organized information. Names, addresses, social profiles, and even related family members were all organized in a very easy-to-read format.

Negative: An explanation of what each part of the report is for would be helpful for new users.

Summary: I've been getting non-stop spam calls lately, so I tried a few of them out in reverse lookup and finally was able to track down who was behind them. I'm pretty relieved, actually, the information was legit.

Positive: Reverse lookup gave me search results in like ten seconds flat - full name, carrier data, and associated social media accounts all popped up without me having to search around at all.

Negative: The mobile version of the website could use a slight layout adjustment for smaller mobile screens.

Summary: Used it to scan a contractor who was bidding on roof work for me. Scanned the number, got the name, cross-referenced it - and to be honest, felt a heck of a lot better about proceeding.

Positive: Public info scan yielded a surprisingly comprehensive report - got the name of the person who called, potential family members, and associated social media pages all in one tidy page.

Negative: The trial pricing explanation could be a little more forthcoming on the landing page.

Summary: had to look up a number that was texting my mom repeatedly, and it brought up the information quickly with good detail. the format is nice and easy to read.

Positive: the number search brought up a name, connected social media pages, and even some old addresses in a matter of seconds. the structured output made it a breeze to scan through everything.

Negative: wish there was a way to highlight or tag search results so you can come back to them later.

Summary: Got a voicemail about my auto policy renewal from a number I didn't recognize. Could've been my actual agent or someone impersonating one. Searched it, matched a real State Farm office two miles from my house. Called back, updated my coverage, glad I didn't just ignore it.

Positive: Reverse phone lookup matched a legitimate insurance agency to an unfamiliar number that had called twice. Linked professional profiles added credibility that a basic name match alone wouldn't have provided, and I felt confident returning the call.

Negative: Email delivery option for formatted results would save me from screenshotting everything manually when I need to share findings.

Summary: I used it to check a number from a job ad that seemed too good to be true. Results confirmed it was a legitimate staffing agency, which was reassuring. Data quality is strong, I just wish the site itself looked as modern as the service behind it.

Positive: Accuracy on name and location data was solid across several searches I tested on numbers already in my contacts. Community reports added a trust layer that basic caller ID apps on my phone simply don't offer.

Negative: Visual design could use a refresh. Everything functions well but the layout feels about five years behind similar platforms, which affected my first impression before I saw how good the actual data was.

Summary: Looked up a number from a voicemail about a job opportunity that sounded too good. Results confirmed it was a real staffing agency, which was reassuring. Solid enough for quick checks, though a few gaps left me curious.

Positive: Accuracy on name and location data was solid for standard carriers. Results came back quickly, layout was clean enough to scan in a few seconds, and community reports added a useful trust layer beyond raw data.

Negative: There were some cases where the data on prepaid or VOIP numbers was limited, but without any explanation as to why. A quick mention that there is no available data with each query result would have helped set expectations appropriately.

Summary: I wanted to know who was behind the number that sent me a text message regarding a job posting. The search result revealed that it was an actual person working for an actual company, which gave me enough confidence to make a follow-up call.

Positive: Phone search offered an organized search result with the full name, contact details, and connections to public social media profiles. Appreciate the fact that the search results are not overwhelmed with advertisements like other search services usually do.

Negative: Some of the searches took a little longer to complete compared to the average searches.

Summary: I decided to give it a try to background check a potential tenant who applied to rent out my spare room. Most of the information was accurate and consistent with what they told me, although one piece was slightly outdated.

Positive: Public info scan allowed me to compile information from various sources into one neat page. Names, addresses, linked profiles, and even carrier information were all available without having to search various sites.

Negative: One of the searches I conducted gave me a slightly outdated address for the individual.

Summary: Conducted a few searches to background check a contractor before hiring, and the results were generally helpful. Not all numbers yielded complete information, but those that did were good enough to make my hiring decision.

Positive: Phone number search yielded a surprisingly detailed result with complete name, related addresses, and even a couple of social media pages that I wouldn’t have otherwise discovered through a normal search.

Negative: The results for landline searches were less detailed than those for mobile numbers.
