House, Business or Mobile (Cell) Phone Numbers in France
Finding a French phone number (or "Numéro Téléphone France"), whether for someone’s house or business, is easy if you read French or have the Google tool bar to do the translation, as the major French telephone directories don’t use English.
All French phone numbers are ten digits, starting with a zero if you’re using France Telecom or the number of a provider (e.g. Cegetel uses 7), when dialled from within France, i.e. they include the area phone code. The France country code is 33, and you omit the initial zero or provider’s number when calling from outside the country. "Téléphone portable" (mobile or cell phone to you) numbers start with 06 or 07 for newer numbers.

PAGES BLANCHES
http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/pagesblanches/:
It says "Pages Jaunes" at the top but "white pages" on the search box. This is the official white pages of France, including the French overseas territories and departments. You search by names of people, and now it’s only in French, but the Google tool bar translation is fine.
To use it put in the last name in "Nom", and optionally the first name in "Prénom". Then enter some geographic area, such as the city, departement or region (click on the question mark for a list of regions), and press "trouver" to search. For businesses, click on the "les professionels" tab. For reverse search (search by number: http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/trouverunnom/aquiestcenumero.do) click on the "A qui donc il est ce numéro" tab and enter the ten digit number.
PAGES JAUNES
http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/: Official Yellow Pages for France, including overseas dependencies. Now in French only, but translate via the Google tool bar: enter the type of business (in French) or any part of the business name in "Quoi, Qui", and a geographic location (city, region etc) in "Où" and press "trouver" to search.
118 218 LE NUMERO
http://www.118218.fr/: National directory to find businesses and individuals. In French. To find people select "Je echerche un particulier" and businesses: "Je cherche un professionnel". Includes reverse search: (Sur l’annuaire inversé) where you type in as if you were in France, e.g. 04 93 68 93 68.

I got a call from France but the number is of just 4 digits attached to 33 at the first. Is it a spam?
Tony Page says
I don’t know of any French telephone number that would only have four digits, even if you were in France. Even emergency calls are three.
Hope this helps,
Tony
There are some “special” telephone numbers of only 4 digits, such as La Poste and SNCF. I am unclear whether it is possible to call them from the UK though, as there is no leading zero to drop when prefixing with 0033.
Does anyone know the answer as I would like to get in touch with La Poste by phone?
Paul
Hi Paul, I am having the same issue. I cannot find a way to contact La Poste from my UK mobile in France….. even wilf 0033 before the 4-digit number etc.. not sure what to do. Does anyone know?
Thank you
Dear Paul,

Hi,
This number is bothering me everyday. It Is from France, please help me how to report that in Paris ++33 751 024972
I would really appreciate your help.
I’m sorry, Dil, we have no information on how to take action against phone spammers in France from a foreign country.
We have similar problems here in Australia from foreign spammers, but unfortunately can only bar the number on our own phones, which is not much use as the spammers regularly change their numbers and/or bar caller ID (we simply get “overseas caller” as an ID).
Hi I’m trying to contact our friends in france regarding our holiday booking we have stayed at the apartment for the past three years. Have tried email but no reply, even tried the phone Number oo33 553303895 but cannot connect. Can you help
Hi Manfred,
We’re currently in Central Asia exploring the Silk Road. Unfortunately, due to limited internet access, we’re not able to do any search on your behalf except to suggest that you try the Central switchboard of France Telecom in Paris on +33 1 4444 2222.
Good luck.

I am trying to locate Dieter Seidel, son of Magda Seidel, who lived in Lyon in 1963. I tried already http://www.pagesjaunes.fr/pagesblanches/ and https://annuairespageblanches.com/, but no luck…
I’m sorry Pierre, apart from the phone directories, we don’t have any other information on how you can track down your friend. A suggestion would be to email the Town Hall in Lyon and ask if they can assist you.
Kind regards,
Helen Page

Hi
I have a house in france (10 years now) but have never had internet or phone line installed. I am trying to organise this from the UK but I don’t know the phone number allocated to the house in France. Is there any way to find a phone number allocated to my address?
Regards
James,
How can there be a number allocated to your house if you have never applied for one?
Tony

I received a call from a French number but cannot seem to identify it – it came up on my phone as
+33 (0) 838 703 895 The (0) threw me off as I have never seen that before.
Any ideas?
Hello Stacey,
The (0) is a standard feature and you only dial it if you are calling within a country (in which case of course you will not be dialling the country code).
Tony
my bro lives in France i need to dial 01133etc his number hope that helps
Anne
Thanks, Anne, but the query was about the prefix (0) needed to dial a number if you’re actually in the country. Which country are you in to use the code you mentioned, BTW?
I am in Canada

Using the ideas above, we couldn’t find any name for the number you provided. Of course, you could always call them up, but beware of scams!

Tony
Thank you Sir
No problems, Ramesh, good luck!
Dear Sir
Again I have missed call from this number +33 821 78 48 75
Appreciate if you check for real or fake call.
Thank you .
Ramesh
my mail : rameshimage@gmail.com
Ramesh, I suggest that you ignore phone numbers that you are not familiar with. There are a lot of scam calls these days. If it was a relative who wanted to get in touch, they surely would leave a message for you.
Regards,
Helen
Thank you sir
Again receiving another call from different cell.
I called on pervious cell no , an African/Canadian person picked up and talked to me which is nowhere related and my balance gone in a minute of time .
Let us see the right person related to me and my relatives may be willing to call us.
Anyway, once again thank you.
good advice, don’t pick the phone up ignore
Hi,
I am Norwegian, but this number from France suddenly called me and knew my full name (from Toulon). Who is this? It was a bit scary. Is it a scam, or pishing, threat of doxing, found something on me, or answer from a blood sample I took in Norway 2 month prior, I have no idea.
I hang up after he said “is this –my full name–”
+33 4 83 97 01 56
Hi Mads,
Not listed as a spammer, AFAICS. It’s usually relatively easy to find out your full name and corresponding telephone number on the internet as most people have given that information to myriad websites over the years, and others, if not you, can be hacked. Check https://haveibeenpwned.com/ to see if your email (and therefore possibly other information) has featured in a known hacking exploit.
Good Luck!
Which city / locality is mobile number 06 77 54 18 10
Hello,
06 in France is a mobile number and is therefore not location specific.
