How to remove name or no from (truecaller)?

Truecaller is used by millions worldwide to identify unknown callers. Even if you’ve never installed Truecaller, your name and number may still be inside their database.

Why?
Because Truecaller collects contact info from users’ phone address books. So if someone saved your number in their contacts, that data may reach Truecaller.

 Why You Might Want to Remove Your Number

Truecaller not only shows:

• Name

• Phone number

But sometimes also:

• Address (in case of landline numbers)

This information may come from:

• Public telephone records

• Phone directories

• Old registered landline details

So even if you don’t use Truecaller, your details may still appear.

If you want privacy, you may choose to remove (unlist) your number from their system.

So it’s wise to:

• Check occasionally through a friend’s Truecaller app

• If visible again → repeat Unlist request
