Why can't I find phone numbers for people in the EU?

Tomba doesn't provide personal mobile numbers for people in the European Union (EU). So Phone Finder may find no number for someone based there. You aren't charged when it finds nothing.

Why doesn't Tomba give personal mobile numbers in the EU?

Tomba doesn't store or return personal mobile numbers for people in the EU. This is part of how Tomba follows the EU's privacy law, the GDPR. Phone Finder is meant for contacts outside the EU.

What can I still find?

Phone Finder can still find two kinds of numbers:

  • Numbers for contacts outside the EU. Phone Finder looks for direct numbers from an email address, a website or a LinkedIn profile.

  • Business numbers, such as a company's main number. To look for one, open Phone and search with the company's website, such as example.com.

What can I do instead?

Contact the person by email. Find their work address with Email Finder, then verify it before you send.

💳 Credits: Phone Finder uses 5 search credits, or 1 search credit for a website, and only when it finds a valid phone number. A search that finds nothing is free.
