    As of Next Week! Within the U.K. 15M Mobiles will be on a National Directory.



    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.

    If you want to go ex directory or just read more, follow the link below.
