Restricted account for no reason
Save your time and money - don’t use this app!!! Restricted my account I was using for business because of zero reason and support said they can’t help. Horrible company
- ★★★★★Phil Vaughn
Has big flaws
Two biggest flaws: #1. You can’t save names of contacts in the app only. #2. When someone’s calls me, my phone doesn’t ring no matter what settings I set. I only see missed calls and have to call them back. When I do, the app uses a stranger number to make the call.

Error creating account
I can't even create an account. I get a 8293 error. TOTAL FAIL FOR THIS APP!

Restricted my service without knowing why
I had sent my wife several text to see how my signature came out and was automatically blocked and their support team said they don’t know the reason why and couldn’t restore my service. Ridiculous

okay but the push notifications spam
I’m using this to manage my church calling so I don’t ignore texts or voice on my main line, but can you do something about having your daily tips and tricks as push notifications? i think they’re helpful but i don’t want the distraction of thinking i got a push notification from a real person

Spam
Even with their spam blocker I get about 20 spam calls a day. Now I’m returning calls from people who said they never called me. Junk service. The company then acts like they are surprised by spam on their public facing answer. Totally disingenuous.

Mute Messages
Good app but need to be able to mute text messages and use GIPHY

Worthless
I needed an app to provide me a second phone number for my part time job. I paid for the subscription and set up my account. Before I was even able to make a call or text there was a restricted notification. I reached out to them for help. They told me I violated the terms. I NEVER USED THE APP! So how could I violate any terms and all I did was simply set up my account. They told time to reach out to Apple for a refund. Apple denied my request. So money was stolen on an app that I could not use. Both companies completely failed to provide customer service to right their wrongs.
