What happens after you contact a private investigator
Four simple steps, and you stay in control the whole way.
Your first message
A line or two about what is going on. No forms to fill in unless you want to.
Our reply
We get back to you by the route you used, at a time that suits you.
A short conversation
We listen, ask a few questions, and tell you honestly what can be looked into.
You decide
You get a plan and the price. Nothing starts until you say yes. T's and C's apply.

Private investigator contact, kept safe
Discreet private investigator contact matters, because many people who get in touch are worried about someone close to them. So the first job is making sure nobody finds out you got in touch.
- Sharing a phone or laptop with the person you are worried about? Tell us, and we will use only the number and times you give
- You can delete our WhatsApp chat on your side once we have spoken
- When we call, we check it is you before saying why we are calling
- Not ready to give your name? Start with what is happening
- Using a shared computer? Clear the browser history after sending the form
What would you like to talk about?
Choose one to see what to mention in your first private investigator contact.
Late nights, new habits, a feeling you cannot shake
Say what you have noticed and when it happens. That is usually enough for a first conversation about a cheating partner case.
A relative nobody has heard from
If they went missing today, report it to the police first. Then tell us when and where they were last seen.
Messages demanding money or silence
Hold off paying and keep every message. WhatsApp us a short description and we will call you when it is safe.
A match or a friend you are not sure about
Send the profile name and the app you met on. We will tell you what a check would involve.
Not sure it fits anywhere?
Most of our cases start that way. Explain it however you like, and you will hear whether we can help.
What to say when you contact a private investigator
Your first private investigator contact does not need the right words. Three things help: what is happening, what you would like to know, and when we can safely reply.
Not sure which service you need? That is fine. Our page on private investigation services explains each one, but most people simply describe what is going on and let us work out the rest.
“Hi, I am worried my husband is seeing someone. He works late on Tuesdays and Thursdays and keeps his phone face down. Can we talk after six? Please WhatsApp first.”
- What is happening: late nights, the phone
- When: Tuesdays and Thursdays
- Safe contact: WhatsApp first, after six
An example only. Write it however feels natural.

Questions before you get in touch
Is there a private investigator number I can WhatsApp?
Yes. The TLD Private Investigators number for calls and WhatsApp is 067 624 0955.
Can I contact a private investigator on WhatsApp?
Yes, and many clients prefer it. You can write when it suits you, and we reply in the same chat or call you at a time you choose.
What should I say in my first message?
What is happening, what you would like to know, and when it is safe to contact you. A line or two is plenty.
Does contacting you commit me to anything?
No. The first conversation commits you to nothing. You get a plan and the price, and you decide whether to go ahead.
Can I stay anonymous at first?
Yes. Private investigator contact can start without your name. We only need it once you decide to go ahead.
Will I have to come in to an office?
No. Cases are set up remotely: phone, WhatsApp, email or the message form.
How quickly will you reply?
As soon as we can. If it is urgent, call or WhatsApp rather than email.
What if someone is in danger right now?
Call the police on 10111 first. Once everyone is safe, contact us and we will take it from there.
Ready when you are
Private investigator contact in one line: call, WhatsApp, email or send a private message. The first conversation commits you to nothing.
T's and C's apply.
