Terms of Service

Last updated: 27 September 2026. Changed in this version: section 2 now mentions quote requests for business list checks, and section 6 says how those checks are priced. The version of 24 September described the Community score (section 2), set out the reporting rules (section 4) and replaced the SMS, credits and payment sections with section 6.

1. Who we are

GotMyNumber (the "Service") is run by Towpath Digital Ltd (company no. 16913912), formerly Central Contacts Ltd. By using the Service you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use it.

2. What the Service does

You can look up a UK phone number, read and add community reports about it, find out where an area code is, join a waitlist for features we have not built yet, and, if you run a business, ask us to quote for checking a list of phone numbers. Looking something up is free and needs no account.

Community reports. A report is one person's account of a call or message. We do not check reports, and a report is not proof of anything about the number or whoever uses it.

The Community score. Number pages show a score from 0 to 100. It rises with the number of different people who have reported the number, so it measures how widely a number has been reported, not how dangerous it is. It is not a safety rating and not a verdict on the number or on the person or business using it. A number with no reports is not thereby safe.

Area codes. Area code information comes from Ofcom's numbering data and place information from Wikidata. It tells you where a code was allocated, not who is calling or where they are.

3. Who can use it

You must be at least 16 to use the Service. If you are under 18, you confirm you have a parent's or guardian's permission.

4. Reporting a number

When you send a report you agree that:

  • it describes a call or message you actually received, honestly and as it happened;
  • it describes the call, not a person: no names, addresses or other personal details of the caller or anyone else;
  • it contains nothing you know to be false, nothing defamatory and nothing abusive;
  • we may publish it on the number's page, and may edit or remove it, for example if it breaks these rules or someone shows us it is wrong.

If a number is yours and a report about it is wrong, section 4 of the privacy policy explains how to ask us to correct or remove it.

5. Using the Service fairly

Do not use the Service unlawfully, to harass anyone, to impersonate anyone, or to copy or scrape it in bulk.

6. Paid features

You cannot buy anything on this website and we do not take card payments here. Business list checks are priced by quote: you ask through the form on that page, we reply with a price, and nothing is charged unless you accept it. Claiming and verifying a number you own is not open yet. If we introduce a feature you pay for on the site, its price and terms will be shown before you pay, and these terms will be updated first.

7. Accuracy

Reports come from the public, and number and area information comes from public data. We work to keep it right but cannot guarantee it is accurate or complete. Use it as one input to your own judgement.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim. Nothing excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or fraud.

9. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
