Quick overview

  • USPhoneBook is a reverse-phone and people-search site that compiles names, addresses, and phone numbers from public records, and the core lookup is free.
  • The opt-out is free and needs no phone number: you enter your name and email, click the emailed link, and fill in a form, and the site says to allow 3 days.
  • The site's pages don't say whether a removed listing can return, and the same record often sits on other sites that each need their own opt-out.

What is USPhoneBook

USPhoneBook is a reverse-phone-lookup and people-search platform that compiles names, current and past addresses, phone numbers, and relatives from public records into searchable profiles. The core lookup is free, and the opt-out form asks for no payment or subscription.

Data broker registry filings name Mississippi Tornado Alley LLC as the operator behind USPhoneBook and several sister sites, including FastPeopleSearch and AdvancedBackgroundChecks.

How to remove yourself

USPhoneBook's opt-out form lists four steps, checked in October 2026.

  1. 1

    Open the opt-out form

    At usphonebook.com/removal (the US Phone Book Opt-Out Form), choose whether you are the subject of the request or an authorized agent.

  2. 2

    Enter your name and email

    Enter your first name, last name (middle name is optional) and email address. Tick the authorization box, complete the reCAPTCHA and click "Begin Removal Process." USPhoneBook then sends a link to your email.

  3. 3

    Click the emailed link

    The email may take some time to arrive. If you wait more than 24 hours to click the link, you need to request a new one.

  4. 4

    Fill in the removal form

    Enter your information so that it matches the record you want opted out. Leaving fields out or entering inaccurate details only hinders the process. You then see a confirmation page and receive a confirmation email. USPhoneBook says to allow 3 days for the request to be fully processed.

Notice: USPhoneBook usually isn't the only place this kind of information about you shows up — the same details often turn up on other data-broker and people-search sites too. It's worth running a free data-broker exposure check to see the rest of the picture.

If it doesn't fully solve the problem

USPhoneBook's opt-out pages don't say whether a removed listing can return. Search your name again after the removal window has passed to confirm it's gone.

USPhoneBook isn't the only place the same record tends to surface. The same name, address and phone combination commonly appears on other people-search sites like FastPeopleSearch, each needing its own opt-out.

If the listing comes back, or you're on several of these sites, our Data Broker Removal service handles the opt-outs for you, and Privacy Monitoring re-checks the sites so a returning listing is caught early.

Common questions

Does USPhoneBook require phone verification?

No. The opt-out form asks for your name, an email address, an authorization tick and a reCAPTCHA, then emails you a link to the removal form. The link must be clicked within 24 hours, and it doesn't ask for a phone number.

Do I need to pay USPhoneBook to get my listing removed?

No. The core lookup is free, and the opt-out form asks for no payment or subscription. It asks for your name and an email address, then emails you a link to the removal form.

Will my information come back after I opt out?

USPhoneBook's opt-out pages don't say whether a removed listing can return. Search your name again after the removal window has passed to confirm it's gone.

Do I pay if my listing isn't removed?

Opting out yourself is free. Our removal services are no-removal, no-fee: you're invoiced only once we achieve the removal defined in your Service Agreement. Search suppression is billed for the work performed.
