Unlisted Phone Numbers
|
|
|
|
There are a couple of different ways of doing this. Let's see if this
|
|
one will help: Every city has one or more offices dedicated to assigning
|
|
numbers to the telephone wire pairs. These offices are called DPAC offices
|
|
and are available to service reps who are installing or repairing phones.
|
|
To get the DPAC number, a service rep would call the customer service number
|
|
for billing information in the town that the number is located in that he is
|
|
trying to get the unlisted number of (Got that?). The conversation would go
|
|
something like this: "Hi, Amarillo, this is Joe from Anytown business office,
|
|
I need the DPAC number for the south side of town." This info is usually
|
|
passed out with no problems, so... if the first person you call doesn't have
|
|
it, try another. REMEMBER, no one has ANY IDEA who the hell you are when you
|
|
are talking on the phone, so you can be anyone you damn well please! (heheheh!)
|
|
When you call the DPAC number, just tell them that you need a listing for
|
|
either the address that you have, or the name. DPAC DOES NOT SHOW WHETHER
|
|
THE NUMBER IS LISTED OR UNLISTED!! Also, if you're going to make a habit of
|
|
chasing numbers down, you might want to check into getting a criss-cross
|
|
directory, which lists phone numbers by their addresses. It costs a couple-
|
|
a-hundred $$$, but it is well worth it if you have to chase more than one or
|
|
two numbers down!
