How to recall a private number – Whooming
Whooming
The first service I want to advise you to try to get a private number is Whooming. If strangely I had never heard of it, you should know that it is a free online service also usable in the form of smartphone apps through which you can identify private numbers using the call forwarding technique. In a nutshell, at the time of receiving a phone call with the anonymous will simply hang up and it will be automatically diverted to the number of Whooming, which in turn will identify the caller.

The service is therefore extremely effective but not exactly immediate. In fact, it allows you to find out the numbers of those who call with the private only once 24 hours have elapsed since the phone call, before the numbers are partially obscured (which can still be useful to get a broad idea). To circumvent this limitation, you must pay, making a top-up of at least 5 euros. Always after recharging, you can unlock additional features such as call recording and the service that allows call recipients to contact calls without them noticing.
To use the service, connected to the official website of the same, click on the button Log in at the top right, then on the item Create a free account! and sign up for Whooming using your email address or your Facebook account.
When registration is complete, log in to your Whooming account, click on the Configure item that is at the top and click on the Add number button and then click on Continue. Then fill out the form that is proposed to you by entering, in the appropriate fields on the screen, the nation of your manager, the name of your telephone operator and your telephone number. Then put the check mark next to the item I read and accept the terms of service and click on the button Continue.

Then choose whether to activate the diversion on busy (in order to send to Whooming only the calls that you refuse while the phone is ringing) or the total deviation (which automatically redirects all calls to Whooming by no longer ringing the phone). check next to the preferred option and call the number provided at the bottom.
To complete the entire procedure, click on the Continue button and verify your number by calling another number and rejecting the call. Also this, if everything goes as planned and no problems arise, you will have the opportunity to discover the senders of the calls made with the private you receive on your phone or home phone by connecting to the site of Whooming and clicking on the voice Calls present in the part in high of the same. Once you have made a note of the number, you can then call it back.
Instead to recharge and then access the paid features of the service, you must go to the Reload section of the site, select the desired cut and make payment.
As anticipated a few lines higher, being Whooming also available is a mobile device app – to be precise for Android and iOS – you can find out who owns a private number and therefore also call it directly from your smartphone. To do that, just download the app (through the links I have just provided or in any case by opening the reference app store, creating Whoming and pressing the button to download it), start it by pressing on its home screen icon and running login with your account (or the registration and configuration procedure, if you have not already done so, the steps to be completed are good or bad identical to those of the Web version of the service seen together in the previous lines).

Once this is done and after receiving anonymous calls, you will be able to view the Whooming phone call log by tapping the button with the three horizontal lines on the left, selecting the Calls from the menu that appears and checking that in the drop down menu Select your phone number to indicate it (otherwise you will have to select it). Then you should find the list of calls received and forward to Whooming at the bottom of the screen.
Even in the case of the mobile app, to unlock the paid features you just select the desired search cut and pay by accessing the Recharge section attached to the visible menu after tap on the button with the three horizontal lines on the application screen.
Note: In the case of mobile telephony, before using the service, I suggest you to make sure that you have at least 1 euro of credit remaining on your SIM. This is because the call forwarding configuration requires that the phone credit is not exhausted (even if the service is free).
How to recall a private number – WoozThat
Another service that you can rely on to call a private number is WoozThat. This is a solution similar to the already mentioned Whooming that allows you to find out who owns a given anonymous numbering and then offers the possibility of being able to recall using the call forwarding technique. The service is completely free and allows you to trace the number of calls instantly and completely. The only “new” is that it only works with mobile telephony and is usable exclusively through the appropriate app for Android and iOS.
You ask me how to use it? I’ll explain it to you right away. To start with download, install and launch the app on your device and then follow the short introductory tutorial that is proposed and enter your mobile number in the field on the screen. In a short time you will then receive a call from the service. On Android the call will be automatically re-connected, while on iOS you will have to reject it by pressing on the appropriate red button.

Now, if what you’re using is an Android smartphone, the configuration of WoozThat is practically finished and when you receive a call with the private number you just have to press the button Identify that you will see the display to attack the call and receive a notification to discover the real identity of who is calling you and therefore be able to call in turn.
If what you are using is an iPhone, to complete the configuration you must first copy and paste in the dialer (the numeric keypad) the code shown on the display and then you have to press the green key with the handset to start a call to the numbering in question in order to reset your call diversions.
Then open the application again, copy and paste in the dialer the other code that is shown to you and make a further call to the latter to also reset the call deviations when occupied on the WoozThat systems. Finally, return to the app screen and stop on OK.
When you then receive a call from a private number, you can find out who it belongs in such a way that you can then recall the numbering by simply tapping the button to hang up the call (the red one with the phone) that you will see appear on the display. Then you will receive a notification from the app and pressing on it you can get the much desired info.
Note: Even in the case of WoozThat, before using the service check that you have at least 1 euro of credit remaining on your SIM because the call forwarding configuration requires that the phone credit is not zero (although the service is free).
How to recall a private number – Override
You can also rely on Ovveride to find out who the anonymous phone calls are for and then to have the possibility to call a private number. It is a tool made available directly by the telephone operators that allows you to view “in clear” the phone number of the caller hiding, in fact, behind the words “Anonymous”, “Private number” etc. It has an efficiency equal to 100% but unfortunately it is paid: about 30 euros every 15 days.
If you are interested, you can request the activation of the service by sending a special form by registered A / R or fax to your telephone operator, taking care to attach your valid identity document and your tax code.
