How to sign in

Signing in to your Whitepages.com account is easier than creating an account. Go to the homepage and you and click on log in. This time all you will have to give is your email address and your password then click on log in.

In the event that you have forgotten your password then you can always request for a link that you will use to reset your password. Click on forgot password and a link will be sent to your email. Use this link to reset your password and sign in to your account.

Is signing up free?

Signing up for a basic Whitepages account is free. You should not have to enter payment information just to create the account.

An account and a separate subscription are not the same thing. If you see an offer for extra search details or other optional access, read the screen before continuing. You can leave that offer if you only want the free account.

Before approving anything, check whether the screen describes a trial, renewal, or subscription. Do not continue if the page asks for payment details and you did not intend to choose an optional service. Go back to the account area and confirm which option you selected.

If you are unsure whether the account was created, do not submit the form repeatedly. Check your email, including the spam or junk folder, for an account message. You can also return to {site} and see whether the account is recognized.

What to do if free sign-up does not finish

A sign-up page may fail because a field is incomplete, the browser stored an old page, or the email address is already connected to an account. Read any message shown beside the form before trying again.

• Remove accidental spaces before or after anything you typed.
• Make sure your browser allows cookies for the page.
• Reload the page once, then enter the information again.
• If the page says the email is already in use, treat it as an existing account instead of creating another one.
• If no account message arrives, check spam, junk, and filtered folders.

On a phone, switching between the sign-up page and an email app can sometimes reload the form. Keep the account message open in a separate browser tab when possible. If the page continues to fail, try a private browser window or another current browser.

Do not provide card details merely to fix a failed basic sign-up. A payment screen indicates that you may have entered a different flow. Close it and start again from the account area on {site}.
