If you own a cell phone then I am sure you wished to reverse check a phone number atleast once. It may be a mysterious blank call or someone you want to secretly stalk. The reason is irrelevant but you wanted to know the location of the phone number right? Well, reverse phone number search or location tracing methods are probably as old as the invention of phones but they were not for individuals like you and me…untill now!

TP2Location is a web-based application that lets you trace out the geographical location of almost any phone number across the globe. Just visit TP2Location website, enter the phone number in a textbox and click a button. The web app traces out the geographical location of the phone number along with the wireless carrier details. Cool, if you were to ask me. I mean this much information for free, right?

Entering the mobile number:

TP2Location

TP2Location fetches results:

When I tried some of my known phone numbers using the format +919xxxxxxxxx (+91 for India) it gave me results upto state level precision along with the wireless carrier.

The results for US phone numbers are even more precise. Considering the service still in its Beta, this is not too bad at all. I expect the results will be narrowed down further as the service evolves. For now, you can check it out by clicking the link below. Digg it or Tweet about it to share it with your friends and followers.

    You want to be tracked in real time!?

    I put in a couple of Australian numbers and all it could say was that they were in Australia, and the original (not necessarily current) carrier. But I’d have been pretty surprised if it could find more than that.

    @Tim Ya, the service is not fully optimized. But then, it is in its Beta. So chances are we get good results in the future.
