Just last week, 8,256 people got Nomorobo protection!
We laugh every time the phone rings and the number on the CID is one we don't know and there isn't a second ring. Can't wait for the cell application come out.
— Carol G, Nov 29th, 9:57amOverall 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?
— Jon K, Nov 29th, 9:57amIt's wonderful not receiving so many dinnertime phone calls, especially during political elections.
— Joyaustin, Nov 29th, 10:45amI love it! It saves me a lot of aggravation not having to even check the Caller ID. When I hear just one ring, I know it's no one I want to talk to.
— Anonymous, Nov 29th, 11:36amI recommended it to a few relatives over Thanksgiving weekend. I am grateful to have Nomorobo to prevent so many annoying calls from coming thru! It took a while to get it installed on TWC, then another time period till I got any calls to screen. So glad I persevered with the help of Betty Lin-Fisher of Akron Beacon Journal. Some of my calls are stopped after 2 rings, rather than one - but that's great! I seldom get robo calls, but still report when I do. Thank you for coming up with this.
— Anne F, Nov 29th, 11:48amI loved "robo" while it worked but, a few months ago, we had no incoming calls. I contacted our phone co. (Optimum) and they discovered ALL our calls were being sent to "robo". They advised switching call forwarding to "off". They reset the modem and the problem was solved. After a few weeks, I reestablished "robo"--it worked for about a month when the same problem occurred. After Optimum again corrected the problem, I never switched back to "robo". I would appreciate your comments
— George M, Nov 29th, 11:58ami have noticed a BIG drop in the robocalls. What a relief.
— Joan N, Nov 29th, 12:13pmGreat!
