Unlisted number

[MyNameIs]

I wanted to know if my number is listed on public directories if so how can I get it off of them

@MyNameIs   was that a new number you picked with PM?  if that is the case, it could be that it was an recycled number and the one who used that number before has left his number everywhere.

You might want to consider changing a new number.  You can change numbers as many as 4 times a month.  So, maybe get a new number and see how it goes

To get a new number, log into My Account, pick Change Number and then select the new number:

Yes, they still exist but it looks like they publish only 'real' land line numbers.

And I was not able to find my cell number anywhere as cell numbers are not shared with these 'phone directory' sites nor I posted it anywhere.

If you are getting spam calls, your number is generated and dialed by computer

647-858-0001 - call, present spam

647-858-0002 - call, present spam, etc.

@MyNameIs  you meant directory like 411 or Yellowpages?  No mobile numbers are listed on those directories

You are getting some spam calls? what made you ask this question?

Does 411 and the YellowPages/Whitepages still exist? I thought those were relics of the 1990's and earlier.

In addition, cell phone numbers aren't shared with these companies.

I am not aware of any directory for cell numbers.

Let me know what is the site?

But there are many websites that may show your name and number. Usually a land line. Be careful giving cell number while online. Learn to use DND settings.
