I think most of definitions of "telephone records" involve call history and other stuff that got HP board in trouble.

Here something like a credit statement showing consistency of payments to a mobile operator would suffice - with number portability being a law some brokers would sell you access to a database telling you which carrier the number belongs to, and how long ago it was recycled.

Well, like I said above, credit information is also not so easy to obtain.

But remember, this is all when you're strictly following the law. There are plenty of PIs who are willing to bend the law.
