Just last week, 8,268 people got Nomorobo protection!
I'm sure a lot of calls are blocked , but I still get calls under the 800 umbrella and "unknown name" and a few others! Lately I have received scam calls from the "IRS" in three different versions! So no, I am not impressed with your ap, it needs improving!

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?

I think it has helped, but quite a few numbers (including Gallup) get through with a single ring, which is less annoying than talking to them, but very annoying, nonetheless because these callers tend to call every day. I suspect this has something to do with the fact that I use Vonage SimulRing to call my home and cell at the same time, but I'm not sure. I've learned that reporting a problem has no effect (but, heck, you're offering a free service, so ...), which I why I didn't bother.Of course, the 2014 political campaign season was still unbearable, and I don't look forward to 2016, but I think your service is a great help, and I appreciate it.

It has been a Blessing!! We receive at least 3 robocalls a day, and I'm sure with the election next year ti will increase. Thank you Nomorobo!

I have already recommended Nomorobo to all of my friends. I love it! We get so many calls that are now handled with just one ring! I wish my mother-in-law had signed up...she was just scammed out if more than $2000 by a robo caller from Canada.

Nomorobocall is a welcome resident in our home. I can't count the number of people I've turned on to the service and no one has expressed anything but satisfaction. Our satisfaction involves hearing and knowing the call has been intercepted and being able to look at each other with a self satisfied grin when we don't have to bolt from the chair to the phone. Score one for the good guys!
