Just last week, 8,270 people got Nomorobo protection!


Love, love, LOVE it! Just one ring and the robot is gone -- gives me a big smile and a lovely feeling of peace and safety every time. Can't say thank you enough!

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.

Nomorobo has made my home a much nicer place to be. I thank you for eliminating most of the numerous pesky calls that interrupted my day and made me paranoid to answer my phone. Your service indeed does what it claims. Thank you.

The best invention since the telephone itself!!! I smile every time I hear my phone ring just once and then stop, knowing that the call is getting forwarded into oblivion. I've told everyone I know about Nomorobo.THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

Great

I love the one ring telephone calls

(continued) ... tho a low interest credit card call changed format and got thru- 435-880-9856 at 4:39pm 11/28 with unknown name. First tried with 4358809856 as name over the same number and rejected seconds earlier 4:39pm

Great invention - this has drastically cut down on my calls even though some idiots keep trying and get cut off on the first ring - definitely makes life more peaceful. When it comes for the cell phone will sign up for that too.
