November 11[edit]

I have a question about 411[edit]

How can I look up 411/residential numbers for England, Australia or New Zealand? 2001:569:5267:E700:199B:C925:9353:873F (talk) 05:57, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In Australia there is the IPND, see [1]; technical interface: [2]. For a consumer interface you can use https://www.whitepages.com.au/ to look up names or businesses. It is not legal to supply a lookup for phone numbers. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 06:08, 11 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
For the UK, try BT - The Phone Book. BTW "411" is meaningless on this side of the Atlantic, I had to Google it. Alansplodge (talk) 20:10, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See the article Directory_assistance it has sections information for Australia (1223) and UK. RudolfRed (talk) 22:07, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How do I use directory assistance for New Zealand? 2001:569:526A:9100:8D8E:A109:B1DA:DC12 (talk) 00:32, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
