Just last week, 8,279 people got Nomorobo protection!


Like many of the robo calls I thought Nomorobo was similarly suspect. But since we were being inundated with junk phone calls I signed up. I have to say the service works exactly as promised. One ring and those junk calls are shunted to space. You guys are great!

I am selecting 10 because I am assuming it is working as advertised. One of the problems with something like Nomorobo is that there really isn't a control to tell how well it is working. I am pretty sure I am still getting robocalls, certainly around the elections and at other times. What I don't know is how many less I am getting because of Nomorobo. I think ti is a great idea and I hope it is working as advertised. The only way I could no for sure is if I did not get any of these calls and I do not think that is the case.

I really love it--THANK YOU!

Thank you😉. Love it when it rings once and then NoMORE. It has taken away a lot of scammer calls daily and the anger all those scam calls were causing!

Overall I am very happy with your service. However, I want to point out that it is not 100% effective. Specifically, during the election season from about September through the election in early November, we noticed that robocalls for political surveys frequently got through your technology. Of course, now that the elections are over, we are no longer being bothered. But, is there some reason why those calls could not be stopped?

Amazing. It has cut the robocalls we get by at least 90%. What a pleasure not to race to get the phone and find garbage on the other end. Some still get through, but I report them faithfully. I have recommended Nomorobo to numerous friends. Keep up the good work!

Big decline in robo calls since I signed up
