Verizon Call Filter for Positive User Reviews

✓ Saves me SO many spam calls!!I hesitated before opting for a call filter but I wish I had done it sooner!! Call Filter has not just saved me from answering robo calls, political calls, random surveys and who knows what else—-but most times I DON’T EVEN HEAR THE RING!! Can you imagine how peaceful your daily life can be without the almost constant interruptions by your phone ringing?!! Your wanted calls still come through. You won’t miss the call from that special person or the job you applied for—those ring through as usual. It’s the annoying spam calls that no one ever wants that Call Filter recognizes and prevents from getting through. No more interruptions at mealtime, or when you’re in the shower,…Call Filter is amazing!!.BuckeyeGirl23Version: 3.8

✓ BLOCKS LITTLE TO NOTHINGI would like to manually change my rating to 0 stars as it is warranted. I installed the Verizon Call Filter on April 24 on my iPhone 6S because I was receiving 3-5 spam calls per day. I had the Verizon rep assist me with making sure that all of the settings were maximized to filter out the most possible potential spam calls and the sensitivity level was set to the highest level possible. Well I would like to report that between April 24-May 27 I have had to manually block 42 incoming spam calls as opposed to the Verizon Call Filter blocking a grand total of 3. Yes that’s right a measly 3 blocked calls is the best that this inept, shoddy useless service could produce and to add insult to injury they have the temerity to charge $2.99/month for the service or should I say non service. Don’t waste your time or money on this totally useless service. It doesn’t work!.Mike 2123Version: 3.5

✓ User ErrorsVerizon doesn’t sign you up automatically without you doing anything. When you download the free call filter app you’re asked if you want to start a 30 day free trial of the “plus” version. If you aren’t paying attention and if you agree while clicking through then after 30 days the $2.99 will be charged to your account. To remove it simply log in to your account, go to “add on’s” and take it off. I love this app, I pay for the plus version and after setting it up for how I like to use it I really like how I can report those annoying calls I got everyday. After about a few weeks of using the app to report spam numbers it seems like I don’t get spam calls anymore. Thank you Verizon..LivNLetLiv637Version: 3.3.3

✓ Well worth itYes, the service costs money, but it is well worth it. No one picks Verizon because they are the cheapest carrier, but you do mostly get what you pay for. Their customer service is second to none, and while they offer a free spam call notification service, this adds a lot more with filtering calls out entirely, and once set up correctly, an easy way to register (rare) uncaught spam and robot calls with the app using the “Share” function from the Phone app. All in all pretty seamless. Eventually Caller ID will hopefully implement security, spam call centers will become subject to fines and legal actions, and this will become a built in feature on all phones. For now, it’s well worth the $3 service fee per month in saved time..Oliver ThomasVersion: 2.1

✓ STILL no eSIM support.Although the most recent update (which I’m running) claims to fix this issue, the app still DOES NOT work if you use eSIM as your only line. I reserve my physical SIM slot for my secondary (foreign) line, which is necessary because my foreign carrier does not support eSIM, and also I prefer to keep that line “off” when I'm in the USA, which is generally not supposed to be an issue and is also the safest way to ensure you don’t get hit with roaming charges or unwanted call/texts from my foreign number. As I’ve discovered, the call filter app still won’t even activate if your VZN line isn’t on the physical SIM. As a work around ive been able to activate call filter if I turn on my physical sim line; again this is not my vzn line so I’m not sure why it makes a difference, but at least it provides a workaround until the problem is truly fixed..BoltgVersion: 2.2

✓ Good. Certainly Better than NothingPredictably: Sometimes it IDs calls ads spam correctly, sometimes it doesn't ID spam calls (because a degree of learning needs to happen somehow to make an identification.) This is expected and fine. Good: You can report a call by swiping its record in the call history to reveal a button to do so. Peculiar: I just found my own number in the blocked calls list 👀 ! I removed it from the blocked list, so now my# is on my "allowed" list. That's fine, except the unpaid version only supports 5 "allowed" callers (numbers that bypass the filter regardless — good if your spouse works at a spam house, I guess) fortunately I don't get a lot of calls from strangers. If I did, I'd probably use this list more, and this would REALLY frustrate me..TunaFish#5Version: 14.4

✓ App works as it should.I see a lot of really bad reviews. A lot. And they are all coming from pretentious individuals who believe everything should be handed to them. So let’s settle this. Your number is public information. It can be found easily. Spam calls, robo-calls, whatever you want to label it, are not very different from spam emails. You’re going to get them. This app will help keep the amount of those calls from coming through, but it doesn’t stop them all. It can’t, realistically. I’ve been issuing since day one, and as time goes on, I get less and less spam calls. If you’re using this app, do your part and report those spam numbers as they come it. That’s how the database is built. By the consumer. Is that too much work for you? Then drop your service with Verizon, toss you phone in the trash, and start using smoke signals. Because that is the ONLY way you can stop all the spam calls..Meeseeks240Version: 2.3

✓ It works, however......to be able to get all the bells and whistles you need to pay $2.99 per line, which for our family plan is $12. I put the paid version on to try it for the family and all the spam and robocalls stopped. The problem is, when I signed up, it said that if I chose to add it to the family plan, it would be $7.99 total. When I tried to add it through the chat, I was told it wasn’t available and would be $2.99 per line. I pay a bill of $350 per month for 4 of my family members to be on the family plan. I don’t want to add more. (Btw, I compared T-Mobile to everything we have, and the prices were virtually the same.) So I have changed Call Filter to the free version and we’ll see how well it works..Sld6364Version: 2.1

✓ Works well for what I wantedI’m not sure about others but I rarely use my phone to actually make calls and when I do it is from people I care about. When those calls are being outnumbered by scammers and spam then I feel something had to be done and thankfully Verizon offered this app. Yes, you can spend some money to get an upgraded version which I did because I was tired of getting illegitimate calls. I have it set to block everything identified as spam and I assume it allows people who are in my contacts because I have had not had any issues with receiving calls from any of them. Some simple things you need to know before you use this app: - You need to be a Verizon customer - You need to actively report spam calls as you receive them. They will still show up on your call list as a “missed call”. By sharing the caller with the call filter app you help build their database of spam. Bottomline: if you, like me, are tired of getting a call only to see it’s some unknown number then this app is worth a go. I opted for the paid version only because I wanted more options and services. Don’t expect the free version to be stellar..YuriNikkoVersion: 2.9.1

✓ Getting Better Over Time ... with all our input and help...IMHO ... I think this is the possible beginning of a change in the SPAM War... Please know that if you block a Verizon call on an IOS iPhone - those blocked numbers will not ring through - but still will go to voice mail - where they can leave a voicemail AND if they do those Blocked Number Voicemails WILL NOT ALSO SHOW UP ON YOUR IPHONE’s Visual VoiceMail on your phone!!! To use Verizon’s SPAM Filter EFFECTIVELY esp with iPhone (not sure if it’s the same for Androids) UNBLOCK ALL NUMBER’s on your iPhone! ... and let the call Filter Do It’s Job. The more of us who use it the smarter it becomes... More and more often - on calls that the Filter knows actually to be SPAM - the Filter is self-blocking those out - they never ring through - but you still get a memo of what number and when that number’s call was blocked. Hopefully in the future, as the Filter sees more and more quick hang ups from all of us... the system will backtrack the VOIP data to its originator and start monitoring z AZ and slamming shut each of the numbers it’s temporarily using to SPAM us. If say even 20% of all of Verizon accounts have this in app’s feedback to our responses to calls ... it should put a major dent in yet a larger number of the SPAM we’re all receiving..F!XM33Version: 2.7

✓ People are so idioticI think this app is a great idea! I see a few reviews complaining that they want to cancel verizon because of spam calls as if any cellular provider has anything to do with robo calls. No matter what carrier it’s the phone number that is getting the spam calls not the service provider. I’m sure it takes some type of technology to provide this service hence why you may have to eventually pay for the app. At least verizon is trying to help with the problem instead of saying just ignore the calls like you’ve always done. Some people have businesses and can’t afford to just ignore every unknown phone calls. Don’t listen to some of the moronic reviews, if you want a piece of mind give the app a try or just deal with unwanted calls everyday..CourtBellaVersion: 2.0

✓ Works great if setup properlyI’m pretty sure all of these bad reviews are people that are just too dumb to set up the app/call filtering properly. It walks you through it step by step. Take your time, read what it says, and set it up properly. I can tell by a lot of these bad reviews that people just blasted through it without reading what it said and following the steps. Especially the people that say they got charged when they only wanted the free version. It literally allows you to skip the upgrade and use the free only version. Be smarter than the app people and you’ll be just fine..Christelcr18Version: 15.2
