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


Terriffic! All the governmental agencies who supposed to protect us from this stuff are USELESS is stopping the plague of annoying calls. I get 3-4 every day. Its outrageous! I'm tired of paying bureaucrats salaries who aren't accomplishing what they're supposed to in protecting us from this nonsense. The "Do Not Call" registry is a joke- useless. Thank god for you guys!!

It is the greatest thing. I smile every time the phone rings once and stops. Love it.

I love this app... Especially when I hear one ring and then silence! It always makes me smile and say to myself, "nomorobo strikes again."

great service

I love it. We don't get those annoying robo silent calls anymore.

It's an ok service although it hasn't been as effective as advertised. It is only blocking 50% of the calls to my landline. I guess that's an improvement but not what I expected.Some of the numbers that get through are listed as "private" - that is, no caller id information is given. These calls should be blocked too. If there's no caller id info the call should be blocked.

This is the best thing to happen to phone communications. One ring and they're gone. Some still get through but only abut 10%. I'd say that is good work. You guys are the greatest. We can now eat dinner without trying to tolerate telemarketers - even non-profits.Thanks!

I wish it would not ring once when a robo call comes in. Can't the call be completely blocked instead?
