Before you call
Each listing says what the business actually does, where it works and what it charges for. The check date on every card is when the details were last read off that business's own site or a public listing — if a number doesn't answer, the site has probably moved on since.
Nobody pays to be here. If a business you know about is missing, it's because it hasn't been checked yet, not because it costs money to appear.
