Re: Finding an address from just a phone number?

Phone phone numbers are a different matter to business phone numbers and there's a sense of privacy about it, obviously you can normally find out a phone number if you've got the name and normally it has the address to but I'm not sure, for privacy's sake if I'd want to be able to do it the other way. Also remember if they're Ex-Directory you're gonna have no luck whatsoever

Why not try your local Trading Standards, he may well be known to them & they might have his details.

Six months? I'd hate to supply you any goods or services then - my cash flow would be shot to pieces
