It works! It actually works! And it’s free!
This is NOT a commercial. I’m just sharing my delight.
I’m one of those people who still have a landline. I have my iPhone, too, of course. But it’s the home line (which I still need for purposes I won’t go into) that has been driving me crazy with cold-calls, scam artists, and telemarketers, especially ones with only a recording on the other end to yell at or humans who won’t give up. As you likely know, yelling does no good whether at man or machine.
Then I signed up with a company who stops robo-calls after one ring of my phone so I don’t have to deal with them. They charge for the service to cell phones but not to landlines. Now I smile when my phone rings once and stops, and I think, GOTCHA!
I don’t miss the frequent calls from somebody “from Microsoft” asking me to turn over control of my computer so they can “fix” the dangerous bug in it. Or the fake charities and telemarketers. So far I’m not getting those calls on my cell, but eventually I know I will, at which time I’ll pay the $5 a month to add my iPhone.
If you’re interested, the company is Nomorobo. You can find them at https://www.nomorobo.com.
All I can say is, It works for me!
