Adding NomoRobo service to wireless customers to block spam, robo and solicitor calls

It would be very nice if AT&T Wireless included the NomoRobo service for the wireless customers. Verizon already has for their customers. https://www.verizon.com/support/consumer/consumer-education/robocalls/nomorobo

I get several spam, robo and solicitor calls even though I am on the do not call registry.

Do you have any plans in the near future to add this service?

Nomorobo does not work with any wireless carrier. Nomorobo only works with voip service. The link you provided is only for Verizon's voip landline service. Nomorobo works fine with ATT's Uverse voice too, which is also a voip service.

 

Again, Nomorobo does not work with any cell phone service. It is up to nomorobo to make their service compatible with cellular, not the other way around.

Really does not matter exactly *how* they do it -- bottom line is the technology exists.  This technology is, in fact, almost certainly already built into AT&T's system.

 

AT&T should provide blocking of known robocallers, spammers, scammers and such at top level -- so none of their customers get these illegal and annoying calls and texts.

 

Only the phone carriers are in a position to actually stop this stuff, and they really should get on the side of fighting it instead of acting like it is somebody else's problem.

 

AT&T -- please step up and be a leader by allowing customers to report scam/spam calls.  If 3 customers report the same number, block it from your system.  This change alone would probably net you more customers.

 

If enough of the large carriers, like AT&T, start doing this service providers that harber these scammers will have to tighten up their policies...otherwise they will end up with a bunch of "dead" numbers they can't resell again.

From Nomorobo site

 

Unfortunately, we are not supported on wireless carriers at this time.  We are working on adding them, and will be sure to notify you as soon as we are able to.
