The service was created in 2011 in the Czech Republic. It is an online forum where the users can share their experience with phone numbers, both annoying (mostly telemarketing, surveys) and useful (e.g. couriers, offices). The service is for all those who want to know who a certain phone number 7607404020 belongs to and if it is desirable to answer a call from them.
Users can find other people’s rating of a phone number 7607404020, interest in a number in the last year, and, if possible, also the location of a number (for landlines).
It is a number of views of a page. Only one access a day is counted for a device. We try not to let the number be influenced by search engine access so it should only be the number of views by real visitors.
