HLR Lookup (Mobile Validation)

Our Mobile Validation (HLR lookup) service saves you time and money by removing fake, incorrect or dead numbers from your customer lists - before you ever pick up the phone or send a text.

A Home Location Register (HLR) lookup queries the mobile networks in real time to confirm whether a number is live, which network it belongs to, and whether the handset is currently switched on. It does all of this silently - the phone never rings.

That means you can scrub an entire list of mobiles for connectivity before a campaign, keep your dialler productive, and stop paying to text numbers that no longer exist.

What you get back
  • networkName - the current network
  • mcc / mnc - country & network codes
  • on - whether the handset is switched on
  • Free syntax result as a fallback
