How to block unwanted calls with Nomorobo
Set up Nomorobo service for free in six simple steps
In some areas, Astound is compatible with Nomorobo, a free service that blocks or hangs up on illegal robocalls and telemarketers. Essentially, the app uses a list of phone numbers from the FCC Do Not Call list to block suspected calls.
Please be aware that not all phone features are available in all areas.

- Select Astound as your carrier. Enter your email address and click Next.
- Check your inbox for an email from Nomorobo. Click on the link provided to activate your account. You will need to create a username and password.
- In the Your Phones tab in your new account, enter your phone number(s)
