A company will begin offering a directory service from next week that allows people to find the mobile phone numbers of people they don't know. Run by 118800, it will cost £1 and use databases of numbers it said are freely available for purchase and in the public domain.
Anyone searching for a number can type the name and location of the person into the 118800 website.
It claims to have some 15m numbers in its database.
