Willyworm, somebody, anybody.. how do we stop robot calls on business phone?

We are getting like 1M calls every day. Have 5 lines and they must hit each one in order. I'm pretty sure that we have ATT for phone service, Spectrum for internet.

Sorry I'm late.

First of all, if you use us for internet and AT&T for phone service, we need to be talking about migrating those lines over to us ASAP. Send me a pm with the address, business name, etc and I'll look up the account and let you know what the options are. In most instances with 5 lines, I can save y'all a pretty substantial amount. Reason is, typically when a business has phone service only with AT&T the pricing is not very kind.

As for the robo calls, needs more info. Are the automated? Or are they a real human beings?

Here's a pro tip... I used to get automated calls on my company cell pretty often. When they call, answer the phone... when you here some automated thingy start to tell you about what product they are trying to sell you, or why they are calling, don't hang up! Give it 20 seconds or so. Then at the end it'll likely say something like "to be connected to a customer service rep, press 1, to be removed from this call list press 2". Press 2.

I started doing this and whatever list I was on, I was legitimately removed from. Since I kept doing that I've noticed a significant decrease in the number of BS calls that I get. To the point where I rarely get them any more.

Now if you switched your phone service to Spectrum we do have a feature called "Nomorobo". Haven't gotten any feedback on how well it works, but I know we offer it. It's supposed to eliminate the robo calls. https://newsroom.charter.com/press-r...ting-nomorobo/
