Default Anyone use NoMoRobo?

I finally signed up for this in December. Didn't notice many intercepted calls in the first few weeks but lately it seems to have "kicked in." I can tell because the phone will ring once and then stop which means NoMoRobo intercepted the call. Have definitely noticed a drop in calls from blocked or unidentified numbers in the last month. I'm not sure how they make their money but it's free to the user. Haven't seen any downside so far.

Anyone else have good or bad experiences? I put the link below for those that may not be familiar with it. I have no connection other than being a satisfied (so far) user.

I've been using it a month or so and I know it's helping. It does help to report any call that makes it through though. I recommend it to others.

Been using it for over a year. It doesn't catch everything, but it brings a smile to may face everytime the phone rings "once"!

I am fascinated by this...but it's not supported by CenturyLink, our land-line provider...

Caller ID is included in our plan. That's all I need. Don't really want to get a third party into the mix monitoring my calls.

I installed it a few weeks back to cut down on robocalls. It works! I was getting 1 or 2 of those annoying calls per day. Credit card interest! Free Medicare scooter! I had tried to get on 'do not call' lists to cut down on the annoyance but the calls just kept on coming.

The instructions on the Nomorobo web site for hooking up the app were very clear. As a bonus I now have an app on my tablet that makes the tablet essentially an extension of my home phone.

We have caller ID also but don't have a phone in every room and still have a couple old phones w/o a display. When I'm reading in the LR and the phone rings, if it only rings once, I know I don't have to get up.
