How to remove yourself
1
Go to whitepages.com and search for your name to find your listing.
2
Click on your listing to open your profile page.
3
Scroll down and click "Edit" or "Remove My Listing" at the bottom of the page.
Note: Alternatively, go directly to whitepages.com/suppression_requests/new.
4
Select the reason for removal and verify your phone number when prompted.
Note: Whitepages requires phone verification via a call or text -- this is required to complete the opt-out.
5
Enter the PIN received via phone call or text to verify your identity.
6
Submit your request. Removal typically processes within 24 hours.
Will your data reappear on Whitepages?
Yes. Whitepages regularly updates its database from phone directories and public records. Most removals last 6-12 months before data re-indexes.
Things to watch out for
- ! Phone verification is required -- unlike most brokers, Whitepages calls or texts a PIN.
- ! The phone number in your profile is used for verification, which can be problematic if that number is outdated or not yours.
- ! Whitepages Premium and regular Whitepages are separate databases; each may need its own removal.
