Just last week, 8,276 people got Nomorobo protection!


We can finally have dinner again as a family without being constantly interrupted by unwanted calls. The frequency of call is drastically reduced, and when the phone rings 9 of 10 it is a call we are happy to take. It has restored faith in the phone as a means of communication, rather than an annoyance.

Like many of the robo calls I thought Nomorobo was similarly suspect. But since we were being inundated with junk phone calls I signed up. I have to say the service works exactly as promised. One ring and those junk calls are shunted to space. You guys are great!

Love it. Have recommended it to my friends.

Awesome

Amazing. It has cut the robocalls we get by at least 90%. What a pleasure not to race to get the phone and find garbage on the other end. Some still get through, but I report them faithfully. I have recommended Nomorobo to numerous friends. Keep up the good work!

Before Nomorobo we would get some 20-30 auto dialer calls a day. We had even gone so far to buy a phone that announces the caller's ID, so we wouldn't answer the 800 calls. But then the masked local calls started coming too. I seriously considered getting rid of our home phone. I am so happy with Nomorobo. This service has seriously saved me and my husband countless and daily aggravation.

I work from home and my clients are all across the country. I used to be in fear of picking up a call only to have it be a robocall! Since robocall has been on my phone these call rarely get through now and I can be assured that my clients will get excellent service. I would have to say about 90% of the calls I get in a day are robocalls. I have and continue to recommend to everyone who has stopped answering their phones because of these nuisance call to add nomorobo!

I had been waiting for a long time for someone to step up and provide a solution to stopping all the annoying robo and scam calls I have been receiving. I even had to buy a new phone with a larger blocking capability. I don't understand why our carriers did not step up to eliminate this problem. Thanks for offering an alternative solution. It's been working great.

The number of frustrating robocalls is exploding, but there are more options than ever to fight back
