    Default Is it possible to view private numbers on iphone 3gs

    Hi all,

    I have been getting some annoying calls lately all on private number, I was talking to a friend who has a nokia and he said he could a app or something done to his phone that allows him to reveal the private number before he answers,

    So my question is can this be done on the iphone, Im based in Ireland so I dont think trapcall.com will work, have to pay up to test it out.

    Any other suggestions I sure it pppppp's a lot of people who get late at night calls from drunks


    thanks for any help

    Just say after you get the second call that you contacted the police and they are tracing the number and you will be pressing harassment charges, they never call again.

    If all im going to get is replys saying dont answer etc or call police then dont bother replying

    I repair phones for a living people call me at all times sometimes there on private number. I'm not going to not answer a phone call I'm an adult I can take a crank call etc but these are business calls

    I am looking for a service or app that allows me to see who is calling when there number is blocked

    Any ideas

    thanks

    Trapcall works well. Trapcall.com I have wen using it for over a year now. When you get a blocked call tap the power button twice and it un blocks the call showing the number.

    Lol If I read your entire post I would have noticed you said trapcall may not work in Ireland. Sorry lol

    Well please specify in your first post. It sounded like you had a problem with some drunk calling you each night. You should really say you wanted to find the number cuz you have business cards there it'll clarify for many people who are trying to help you.

    Drunk people are annoying and its hard to get a number off someone so i can ring back later when there drunk,

    it looks like it cant be done,

    Another solution is to find out what prefix code will unblock the callers id in ur country. I had a blocked phone and came across a code i.e. *82. if the person saves ur number with that prefix it will show their number on ur phone. could take awhile but well worth the sleep no?
    P.s. What business do u own that lots of drunks call u in the middle of the nite? ;p
    oh wait, ur in ireland. Nuf said.
