Best Answer

Cell phones are unlisted because the cellular carriers do not maintain a whitepages database on their users. This is due in part to the fact that alot of cellular customers do not want such a database to come about, and also because people change their cellular phone numbers so often, and with the advent of pre-paid cellular phones that sometimes do not have any user information associated with them, it would be very difficult and costly.

Do charities in Australia get unlisted telephone numbers from phone companies. The reason why I am asking is that I am getting multiple callers asking for donation and I have an unlisted number?

If you have an unlisted number - no-one should have access to it except for your phone company and people you have given it to personally. If you're getting unsolicited calls from unknown companies - someone must have passed your number on to them.
