From one of our readers, we have received this e-mail on an alternative way to find geographical alternative phone numbers:

A great way to get alternative numbers is to use the Archive.org website enter the url and look at the website as it was a few years back before the 1890 or 1850 numbers were so popular.

We haven’t checked this out fully, but looking at ryanair.ie as an example, it does give old web pages back to 1998. Could be a decent source of information.
