Why do you call her a slag?
Maybe he meant it in a Danny Dyer type way, you know "Slaaaaag" as opposed to "slag"BlueHave said:
They can do a triangulation thing on the number to tell the location when the call was made.
They won't be able to track the mobile or movements however.
Maybe back in the 90s. They won't be able to track the mobile or movements however.

Just out of professional curiosity, what qualifies you to make the above statement? There is such a thing as Call Data Records. It is used extensively to do the things which you state are not possible.They won't be able to track the mobile or movements however.
OP, have a look on Truecaller - it may give you (or may not) more details on the telephone number. Have you changed your telephone number in the past few months by any chance?

I worked for the police a few years back as a civvy and did some work with the department who handled all things like this. The phone companies were very stringent about releasing the live triangulation data. It had to be authorised by the chief constable and there had to be a demonstrable immediate danger to life for it to be agreed.They won't be able to track the mobile or movements however.
Historical data like was person X in place Y at a particular time was easier to get but still required a lot of authorisation but could be used to confirm if someone was in an area where a crime was committed - wasn't perfect obviously as it only showed the phone was there and of course the toe rag had "lent it to their mate"
Does the pic on the facebook account match the pic on whatapp? Plenty of fake FB accounts around. Also download an app called Truecaller and enter the number..if another true caller member has this number saved in their mobiles phonebook it will show you what name. E.g I search a number and get "Uncle Tom" or Tom Plumber. Good luck ;-)
Just tried truecaller and it shows a hidden number called after the one i thought had made the call.
This didnt show up in my normal call log though but does now. I would have thought it ould be and "unknown" and not be visable. It as recieved at the same time as the number I thought made it.
Crossed lines?
