How bulk phone number validation works

Do your phone lists have outdated or non-connecting phone numbers?

It could take hours to go through your lists to make sure each number is working properly. The good news is there’s an easier way to check your contacts’ phone numbers—bulk phone verification.

Bulk verification works by validating a list of phone numbers in a set rather than checking them individually. At Experian, we know that every minute counts when you’re running a business, and our bulk verification will save you time better spent completing other tasks. That’s why we use advanced phone verification tools to process batches of numbers.

How our bulk phone verification tool works

The tool does the following:

  • Searches data from nearly 1,500 telecommunications providers in over 200 countries worldwide.
  • Runs your list of numbers through our provider database.
  • Checks if the number is active.
  • Collects important information on the number—such as phone type, network status, and country of origin.
  • Sends a test message to each number on your list to verify it can receive calls. Don’t worry—the number’s owner won’t see this test.
  • Returns your list to you cleaned, organized, and ready to use.

Experian’s bulk phone number lookup takes the hassle out of cleaning up lists of phone numbers.
