What USPhoneBook Collects About You
USPhoneBook specializes in reverse phone lookup — someone can enter your phone number and find your name and address. It also supports forward lookup by name. A typical profile includes:
- Phone numbers (mobile and landline)
- Full name and age range
- Current and past home addresses
- Associated household members
- Carrier information for the phone number
Why USPhoneBook Matters
USPhoneBook is particularly important to remove from if you receive unwanted calls or texts. Scammers and marketers use reverse phone lookup services to attach names and addresses to phone numbers. Removing your listing reduces the value of your number in these databases.
Step-by-Step Removal Process
Step 1: Find Your Listing by Name
Go to usphonebook.com and search for your name with your city and state. You can also search by phone number if you want to check what appears for a specific number.
Step 2: Open Your Listing
Click on your listing to open the full profile page. Verify the name, address, and phone number are yours. If USPhoneBook has multiple listings for you under different name variations or phone numbers, note all of them — each requires a separate removal request.
Step 3: Click the Removal Link at the Bottom of the Page
Scroll to the bottom of the listing page. Look for a small link that says "Remove listing" or "Opt out / Remove". Click this link — it is the direct path to the removal form for that specific record.
Step 4: Submit the Removal Request
On the removal page, confirm that the details shown are your record. Complete the CAPTCHA and click submit. USPhoneBook does not require an email address for this step — the removal is submitted directly.
Step 5: Confirm if Prompted
In some cases, USPhoneBook may ask for an email address to send a confirmation link. If so, use a privacy-focused email and click the confirmation link when it arrives. Not all removal requests require this step.
Step 6: Repeat for Each Phone Number Listing
If you have multiple phone numbers or multiple listings, go back to the search results and repeat the process for each one. USPhoneBook may have separate entries for your mobile number, a landline you once had, or a work number.
After You Submit
- Allow 24-48 hours for the removal to process
- Test with a reverse lookup — search your phone number on USPhoneBook after 2 days to confirm the listing is gone
- Track it using our Opt-Out Tracker
What If It Doesn't Work?
If your listing is still showing after 48 hours or reappears:
- Try searching by phone number instead of by name — your listing may be indexed differently
- Clear your browser cache and retry the removal form from scratch
- Contact USPhoneBook via their support page if the removal link does not appear or is broken
- Your phone number may be listed under a variant of your name — search for name variations and submit additional requests as needed
- If data is returning repeatedly from a carrier source, contact your phone carrier and ask to opt out of directory listing services
Pro Tip: Opt Out at the Carrier Level
USPhoneBook sources some data directly from phone carriers. Contact your carrier (AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, etc.) and ask to opt out of sharing your number with directory services and data aggregators. This reduces how frequently your phone data is refreshed across multiple brokers, not just USPhoneBook.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is removing my data from USPhoneBook free?
Yes. The opt-out is completely free. No account creation or payment is required. If any service asks for payment to remove your listing from USPhoneBook, that service is not affiliated with USPhoneBook and you should avoid it.
How long does USPhoneBook take to remove my listing?
Most removals are processed within 24-48 hours. If your listing is still visible after 48 hours, try submitting the request again or contact USPhoneBook support.
Will my phone number reappear after removal?
It can, especially if your carrier shares updated directory data. USPhoneBook regularly re-ingests phone data from public and carrier sources. If your number reappears, re-submit the removal request. Opting out at the carrier level (asking your carrier not to share your number) provides a more durable solution.
Does removing from USPhoneBook also remove me from other phone lookup sites?
No. Each phone lookup site operates independently. See our complete data broker opt-out guide for a full list of sites to remove yourself from.
