So, we’ve been posting information lately on how you can use Google Phonebook to reverse lookup phone numbers. But what do you if you don’t want your phone number in the Google Phonebook directory?! You can opt out, that’s what.
To opt out of Google Phonebook, check out the below website:

Basically, how to opt out of the Google Phone book depends on whether or not you’re removing a residential listing or a business listing. If it’s a residential listing, then you can fill out the form on the above web page. If it’s a business listing, you must mail a letter on signed letterhead to the below address:
Google Phonebook Removal
1600 Amphitheatre Parkway
Mountain View, CA 94043
But, even if you remove your phone number from Google Phonebook, it’ll still be in other directories. Here’s a warning from Google:
IMPORTANT NOTE: Removing your phonebook listing will not remove your personal information from other pages on the web or from other reverse phone listing lookup services, such as:
Anywho
Switchboard.com
Whitepages.com
Reverse Phone Directory
Phonenumber.com
Smartpages.com
