You can stop all of those annoying Spam and Telemarketing Calls by signing up for Spectrum's Nomorerobo. Here is how to do that:
1.) Log into your Spectrum "My Account"
2.) Go to "My Phone."
3.) In Your Phone Settings, select "Peace and Quiet."
4.) Find "Nomorerobo" and turn it on.
5.) Say "Yes " to activate "Answer Anywhere." This is needed for Nomorobo to work."
6.) Also activate "Anonymous Call Rejection." (Now known as Call Blocker Basic. )
7/) Save your changes.
Now when a spammer or telemarketer calls, the phone will ring once and the caller will be automatically disconnected! They can't leave a message. If you have Cable TV from Spectrum as well as phone service from them, you will see the numver in your Call Log Directory list on TV, but you will not get anymore messages from spammers, telemarketers, political parties. They are all blocked! We activated Nomoorbo using the steps above two years ago, and have not had a single spammer call get through! It is great!
Additionally, important calls like doctors appointments, school information, hospitals, and pharmacies are allowed through. Go set up Nomorobo as soon as you can. It is a highly recommended service and is free from Spectrum as a part of their phone service.
