It can be a frustrating thing when you miss a phone call and you do not know who it was that made that call.  While most phones and cell phones will store the number that did call you and you can call them back there are a multitude of reasons for wanting to find out who called last from a cell phone or home phone to discover their identity.

It might be that you hate the idea of calling and having that awkward stumbling conversation asking who they are and why they called and want to call back with confidence; maybe it was an important client or job prospect or others that require a level of professionalism. Or maybe there are other reasons you need to know who called last such as if you are the victim of repeat prank calls and want to uncover a name and report them to authorities or even if someone is calling and hanging up at the sound of your voice and you are becoming suspicious.

Whatever your reasons, if you have a number and it is a land line or home phone number then you can access public directories easily to track down their name and details but if it is a cell phone number it can be a little trickier as you will need to search through private databases of phone records to find out who called last.

This is because home phone numbers are considered in the public domain so they can be viewed, published and accessed by anyone unless you pay to have them removed. To find out who called last from a cell phone you do not have the luxury of the public domain and must use paid services on the internet to be able to access private data of companies that have gathered cell phone numbers from their business.

The reason for this is that cell phone numbers are not a part of the public domain like other phone numbers meaning that they are not freely available to the public to be put in regular online or paper phone directories.  So to discover who called last from a cell phone you will need to access private databases from paid websites that allow you to search through cell phone numbers gathers from a number of commercial sources with a reverse cell phone number lookup.
