I am trying to get in touch with a friend but have their name and address only. 118118 have told me that they are ex-directory. Is there anyway I can find out what their phone number is?

Kind regards

You could write to them and ask.
The whole idea of having an Ex-directory number is that it will not show up for people to give out.
no there isn't. BT used to connect you but not tell you the number but they won't even do that now....you will have to write.
No - that's why people stay xd.
Write to them to communicate, once they know who you are, aslong as you give your contact details, they can choose to correspond with you.

I have been Ex directory for Years, much more Privacy and unwanted Phone calls.
Only give out your Phone number to Family and Friends.
Trouble is, doc, many of us don't like dealing with stuff on the phone. If I write to someone complaining or asking a question about a service, I'd like a reply in writing, or at least an email - I like something written down which I can refer back to. I put my number on a letter only if I want them to ring me, and I'm xd.

Does it bother you Doc ? Doesn't bother me in the least !

Yeah, but if you'd had as many nuisance calls as I used to doc, when I used to live on my own, you might think differently.
-- answer removed --
Ex-directory is useful if you are a celebrity and don't want nutters calling all the time.
-- answer removed --
It's not fear of the call, doc, it's a pain in the butt, people ringing you up at all hours, spam calls, double glazing, when all you want is a quiet evening after work. Since I signed up with the preference service, my evenings are my own again.

You can come and answer mine, doc !

Mine is in the phonebook -im with Doc -most of the 'regulars' on here know my name and where I live.My choice -nothing to hide.
Nope you wont get it.
Get the local taxi to go to their home and ask them to call you on your number.Pay them by your C/C -sorted.
