Just last week, 8,275 people got Nomorobo protection!


Absolutely fabulous. I wish it worked on Verizon Wireless too.

Love it, love it. Have been harassing my cell phone provider to cooperate and let me have it on my mobile.Great job, thank you

I can tell when it's working. I only here one ring then I don't even have to look at the phone and I don't have empty messages in my voice mail box. I know Nomorobo has just saved me from another annoying call.

Thanks for making Nomorobo an important and useful option. It is a shame that Verizon (Mid Atlantic Maryland) no longer provides a similar service as they once did.It seems the phone company has a preference in favor of commerical interests over residential customers regarding robocall blocking. I have benefited by the 'one ring cut-off' of robocallers but wish it was a "no-ring". You provide a customer service that easily surpasses the phone company or government protection against such increasing intrusions on privacy.

I love Nomorobo because it actually works!

How wonderful to be able to eat lunch, dinner, etc. and not have to go answer the phone or to get some scammer invading my privacy.Thank you so much for making this available to us.

So far so good! Was afraid it would block robotic bank fraud calls, Rx shipments, etc., but no problem so far. Love the dinner-time calls it's catching!

Awesome service. I had already used up my 20 numbers AT&T allows me to block from my land line and could never block this one number from calling me. It always came up as the number "1" and did not list a number I could block. AT&T software would not allow me to block just the number "1" and since I signed up for Nomorobo I no longer receive calls from them. Excellent service!
