6 Alternatives for ClarityCheck Phone Number Lookup  

If you’re tired of getting ads for ‘Free Phone Number Lookups’ and ending up paying for whole monthly subscriptions (without even knowing), it’s time to purchase a more efficient tool.

No shade, ClarityCheck is great at what it does, especially since it provides decent results for probably the lowest pricing in the market (the cheapest plan is $10).

1. CatfishNumr – Best Alternative Overall

CatfishNumr is your shining armored knight, helping you get through each inconvenience life throws at you. Here’s what makes CatfishNumr a great choice:

It can be used for serious searches like: seeing who your child is talking to, sending threatening texts, or just light researching, e.g., naming a forgotten number.

• By searching a number, you’ll find that person’s Telegram or other social media usernames.
• You will find people’s true name and location.
• It’s global: you can search phone numbers from any place.
• You don’t have to create an account, just add your email to get the findings.

There’s no need for monthly subscriptions: you pay either $5.95 for 2 searches, or $9.95 for 5.

But hear this out: you can use your searches whenever you want – they’re not limited, AND the plans you choose won’t get auto-renewed, unlike with ClarityCheck. 

Which means you won’t get surprise charges, deal with messy cancellations, or fight support over mystery bills.

2. Truecaller – Best Free Alternative

Not only can it replace ClarityCheck, but it even surpasses it. They both have multiple tools other than number lookup, but Truecaller specializes in spotting suspicious callers or message senders.

What makes Truecaller better:

• You can use it for free!
• It’s a website and an app: you can use whichever is more convenient.
• You can view whatever information it has about you and you can opt out.
• It flags fishy callers and message senders in real-time.

Pricing isn’t as expensive:

1. $9.99/month or $74.99/year
2. $14.99/month or $99.99/year
3. $249/year, multiple members allowed

It even provides a scam quiz to test your skills on detecting a scam text message, which is not only a great way of checking how capable you are in these situations, but it’s a pretty good marketing strategy as well.

3. Spokeo – Most Diverse Uses

Spokeo is an especially great alternative when it comes to one-time searches. You choose whatever plan suits your needs the best, you pay $0,95, and you wait for the results.

Besides offering detailed scans of phone numbers that you’re curious about, it also finds:

• Property records
• Known phone directories
• Social media presence
• Email history linked to the number

It’s also worth mentioning that they somehow mix “free trials” with payment. While you might search jumping out of joy, a fee might present itself.

The same goes with auto-renewal. If you don’t cancel on time (even the $1 offer), your card will be charged with monthly fees. So, you either pay little and act fast or pay monthly. 

Monthly subscription options:

1. $29.95/month
2. $19.95/month 
3. $44.85 for 3 months
4. $69.95/month 

4. TruthFinder – Best for Spotting Criminals

TruthFinder was the OG of phone number reverse searching, though lately it had a bit of a glowdown…

TruthFinder gives off a friendly, gossipy energy, depending on what you want to search for. It can also give off FBI investigations vibes, as it can be used for:

• Finding the person who keeps calling your husband.
• Checking if the person you’re dating is a catfish.
• Finding where the scammer messing with you is located.
• Spotting unreliable sellers.
• Getting people’s social media.
• Learning more about property ownership, criminal, traffic records, and sex offender status.

As for the pricing:

People Search (full access): $28.33/month or $47.03/2 months.

Reverse Phone Lookup (limited): $4.99/month, but no criminal records or full reports.

Note: TruthFinder only works for U.S citizens.

Personally, I’d use it before meeting someone I’ve never met before, or to look up spam calls that aren’t that serious…but I wouldn’t depend on it. 

5. BeenVerified – Reliable, not the best

How different can BeenVerified be from other tools? Not much, really. Its features are quite similar to TruthFinder.

Here’s what makes it a cool tool: 

• It mostly gets its info from real government records.
• Best used for background checking roommates before moving in.
• Finding a relative you lost contact with (on social media, email…) 
• Pinpoint your friends’ addresses and surprise them…or don’t.
• It’s very simple to use.
• It can be used for businesses: to approach interested clients and background-check potential employees

Though BeenVerified doesn’t stand out as much, its cheap 1-week trial, purpose, and solid sources make it a great alternative for any number lookup tool.

Pricing plans:

1. 7-day trial – 1 week, 100 searches
2. 1 month – $29.99 
3. 3 months – $58.48 

All BeenVerified subscriptions auto-renew. If you don’t want to continue paying, cancel before you reach the plan’s limit.

6. Intelius – Most Affordable Options

Intelius doesn’t work the same for everyone. Based on what you intend to use it on, there’s a 50/50 chance it’ll do the job, or not.

It could be used as a ClarityCheck alternative because: 

• It has a clean, organized dashboard and mobile app that’s easy to navigate even if you’re sleep-deprived 
• Relatively accurate results
• Better for quick searches rather than detailed forms
• Pulls info from public records like ClarityCheck.

Available Subscriptions:

1. 5-day trial for $1.99 total or 1-week for $0.95 trial
2. 1 month for $25.11 or $29.63 if you started with the low-cost trial
3. 2 months for $42.69 
4. Single report for $29.95

When Is It Okay to Use Number-Lookup Services?

CatfishNumr, ClarityCheck, and other similar websites are legal to use if your reasons are legal. None of these services endorse illegal or plain creepy behavior, examples including:

• Stalking;
• Doxxing;
• Exposing;
• Threatening, and such.

However, if you’re simply protecting your own safety by preventing spam callers, scammers, or potential catfishes, go ahead!

You deserve peace of mind, so identify your needs (search-wise and money-wise), and pick the phone number lookup service accordingly.

Good luck!
