How to remove your details from 192.com
192.com is the UK’s biggest people-finder — it pulls the edited (open) electoral register, company data and property records into a single searchable profile showing your name, age, address history and likely relatives.
What 192.com exposes
Step by step
- 1
Find your listing
Search your name at 192.com and note the exact record(s) — you’ll need the URL or record detail to reference in the request.
- 2
Open the suppression form
Go to 192.com’s “New Request” page (192.com/c01/new-request/). This is their formal data-suppression route under UK GDPR.
- 3
Submit your details
Give the name and address exactly as they appear on the listing and request suppression of your personal data. Cite your right to erasure / objection under UK GDPR Articles 17 and 21.
- 4
Opt out at the source too
Because 192.com refreshes from the open electoral register, opt out of the register as well or your listing can reappear at the next update. The quickest route is gov.uk/register-to-vote — you are not registering again, just changing the open-register setting. Our full guide is at blackeyes.io/guides/remove-from/open-electoral-register.
- 5
Confirm removal
Re-search after ~4 weeks. If still listed, reply to their acknowledgement citing the statutory one-month response deadline.
If that doesn’t work
- Email their DPO if the form fails; UK GDPR obliges them to action a valid erasure request regardless of channel.
What removing yourself from 192.com won't do
Most guides skip this part.
- It clears 192.com only. The same electoral-register and company data feeds UKPhonebook, T2A, TraceGenie and a string of other UK directories — each needs its own request, and they all word it differently.
- It does not stop the source. 192.com re-buys the open electoral register at each refresh, so unless you also opt out at your council, your listing can return within months.
- It does nothing about the data brokers behind the scenes — the marketing and B2B databases that hold your details without a public profile page you can search for.
- It is a one-off. Removal is not permanent anywhere: records reappear when you move house, register to vote again, or a broker buys a fresh dataset.

FAQ
Is removal from 192.com free?
Yes. Suppressing your personal data is a UK GDPR right and 192.com cannot charge for it.
Will it come back?
It can, because 192.com refreshes from the open electoral register. Opt out of the register too and it won’t reappear at the next update.
How long does 192.com take?
They must respond within one month under UK GDPR; in practice suppression lands in 2–4 weeks.
How did 192.com get my details?
Mostly from the open (edited) electoral register, which your council sells to anyone who asks unless you opt out, plus Companies House filings and property records. You were never asked directly — that is why most people find their listing by accident.
Do I have to remove myself from other sites separately?
Yes. There is no central UK opt-out. Each directory, broker and people-finder holds its own copy and has to be asked separately, which is the part that turns a ten-minute job into an ongoing one.
