Truecaller shows wrong name for my number, how can I correct it permanently?

Truecaller shows the wrong name because it relies on user-generated data and contact lists, so your number may have been saved incorrectly by multiple people. This means the displayed name won’t change automatically unless you update and override that data.

To fix it permanently, claim your number in Truecaller, edit your profile with the correct name, and verify it through the app. A verified profile has higher priority and helps replace incorrect crowd-sourced names over time.

You can also submit a correction request through Truecaller support and ask contacts to save your number correctly, as their data influences the system.

If none of the above solutions work, please feel free to share your experience. You can also file a complaint on our website.
