Mobile Phone Directory Service 118800 to launch
From early next week a company (118800) will begin offering a directory service which will allow you to find mobile numbers for people they don't know.
Anyone will be able to type in the name and location of a person into the 118800 website and locate a number.
Currently it claims to have over 15m numbers in its database.
Connectivity - the company operating the 118800 service - said that privacy is paramount to them, and thatit's easy to withdraw your mobile number from their databases should you choose to do so.
Why would you want to do this? To stop lots of unsolicited calls and txt messages to your phone like you get with your landline.
For most of the 20th century, the landline was the only phone around. With the mobile you're always available, so its the number most would dial first. So it is perhaps not surprising that a directory service is starting up that allows people to find out someone else's mobile number in the same way we've always been able to do for landlines.
So the choice is yours - but it's easy to unsubscrive but it must be done before the beginning of next week to makse sure that you are ex-directory.
To remove your number click on the link below:
Click on "ex directory" and from there follow the instructions

Hi, im Neil and I work for 118800.co.uk
We don’t give out mobile numbers. 118800 is a service for connecting people that know each other’s name and address. In the majority of cases it will be a friend or colleague who has lost your number or doesn’t have it on them and needs to get in touch. If you are contacted it will be by 118800 calling to announce the name of that person, or sending a text message with the name and number of the person trying to get in touch. It will then be up to you whether you want to speak to them or not.
We connect people who want or need to talk on the move using a system painstakingly designed to protect privacy.
