Spoof Filter Won’t Activate
03/30/2023

Frank Skabopoulis
I get anywhere from 25-50 spam calls per day, and I am at my wits’ end. I have the Premium version through my plan. When I log in, it says I have 2 of 3 filters activated. The third, which is the Neighbor Spoof Filter, will not turn on. I click the button to turn it on, and it spins nonstop and never finishes, no matter how long I wait. This is likely the feature that would be most useful to me, because every call I get is from a different number. I don’t have time to manually add 50 calls per day to my blocked list. The local US Cellular couldn’t help me. I guess I’m just with this reality. I’m glad I’m not actually paying for the Premium version, though I’m sure the charge is buried somewhere in my plan fees.

Useless, unless updates are made.

Through my U.S. Cellular plan, I am supposed to be able to access the premium plan on Call Guardian for free. But I have repeatedly tried to access it and it continually sends me verification codes to verify my number and then gives me a pop-up that says “Unable to complete action: your account is not authorized to complete this purchase. Please call 611 for assistance and try again” with an “OK” button, while in the background there is a screen that is blue and says “All Done, Congrats! Call Guardian Premium is included with your rate plan and has now been activated in your device”. Once I hit “OK” to the pop-up, it brings me immediately back to the phone number verification screen. I have had Call Guardian installed for a few months now and was excited for such software to exist to put a stop to the literal NON-STOP calls I get from spammers, spoofers, and robo-calls on a daily freaking basis. I have to literally tell people who I want to call me that if I don’t answer, to please, PLEASE, PLEASE leave a voicemail, because otherwise I will just assume their number is spam/spoofed.

SPAM PROMOTER NOT BLOCKER

I would recommend this app to no one! Went from hardly any spam calls to dozens a day when I activated this service. Once I uninstalled it my spam calls dropped in number but it’s still a dozen a day or so. The other lines on my plan get very few if any spam calls. What a waste of time and energy trying to use this app. It’s the same three or four spammers calling every time. I can tell because I send the spam calls to voicemail and can see it’s the same messages being left over and over again. I’m disappointed enough that I am strongly considering switching carriers after 20 plus years with US Cellular. If Guardian and US Cellular sold my number then at least give me a kickback to pay for my time in dealing with all this spam. Blocking numbers through the app is also clunky and very inefficient.

Blocks contacts

We all want to be protected from the calls we don’t want but when you choose to allow contacts, it shouldn’t block those calls. My own children couldn’t call me until I added them manually. I also am never notified anyone is calling. It just bypasses me and blocks EVERYTHING. I have repeatedly tried to change the settings but they all are where they should be. If I never wanted to ever receive ANY calls, that would be fine but I’d like to know when ppl are calling so I can decide to accept or decline a call.
