Default Tracing a mobile number.. can it be done?

I want to find out the details of the person behind a certain mobile number.
Ive google'd it and drawn a blank. Is it possible to do?

Thanks, Kj x

And no its not someone off here, it's someone who's been contacting my 12yo daughter!

Doubt it due to data protection act. If it is a number pestering you, your network should be able to block it.

That's what i thought, I'm just being a cautious parent, trying to confirm that this person is who they say they are.

Is it someone from your past, or someone trying to get your details?

It's just someone my.daughters in contact with. She's convinced he's genuine, I'd just like to reassure myself that's the case!

In that case i'd do one of 2 things. Either see if i knew someone who worked in a phone shop who 'could' check details (if the number is registered).
Or i'd get some to call the number and ask for the person they are claiming to be.
