The past few hours I’ve received 4 robocall including from 893-281-3732 which is on Nomorobo’s scammer list.

I have nomorobo blocking enabled.

Only speculation, but Ooma only imports the NMR database once a week ("early' Monday), rather than accessing it directly, so if a number were added today, it wouldn't effectively be blocked by that filter 'til next Monday. Make sense?
I work around this by temporarily adding a new scam number to my personal block list after reporting it to NMR. Purge the list when convenient.

If they update once a week, that’s not particularly useful.
Just got another call just now from

Why doesn't ooma simply update their Nomorobo list more often ?!?

Ditto. Tons of calls from numbers on the Nomorobo block list.
This is becoming an outrageously ridiculous problem. I must get 10 SPAM calls a day...

Are you reporting unblocked calls to NoMoRobo?

How difficult could it possibly be to update the Nomorobo list daily ?!?
These numbers are already blacklisted by Nomorobo.

When I try to do this and tell them what service I am using, the response is I already have Nomorobo working,

For NMR sign-up? Just specify another service & correct it once the acc't is established... a known 'quirk'.
