Good idea. I cringe when calling support.

"Reboot the Telo."

Can you click the "E-mail a report to Ooma" when you get this error page? I think you sent in another one earlier, but we want to check if the same problem traceback is occurring after some changes we pushed out earlier in the week.

For me, there is no "email a report to Ooma" option when the problem occurs. Here's the procedure that isn't working for me:

1) Go to call logs and click the "add to blacklist" button next to the number I want to blacklist.
2) This raises a "Manage Blacklist Item" dialog. I change settings (like category) and click Save.
3) The dialog now shows a pink strip across the top with the message: Service Temporarily Unavailable. Please Try Again.

If I close the dialog and go to the blacklist, I now see the number there although the service was supposedly unavailable. However, if I log out and then back in, no numbers appear in my blacklist. If I try to add a blacklist number directly from the blacklists page, exactly the same behavior occurs: pink strip with unavailable message, but the number shows anyway until I log in the next time.

Yes, the page offered a link to email Ooma and to the forums. I chose to email and that apparently worked, I got the form page. I sent in an error report but never got an answer (that was, I think, 3 days ago.) The next day, the error page stopped appearing and my experience was identical to the one illini describes.

Thank you so much for responding here!

No luck getting this issue fixed. Three phone conversations and two emails. No impressed with tech support thus far. They needed my logon password in order to replicate the problems. My email response was they are working on it and maybe I should look for solutions on this forum.
If any help is here that would be great.

Good luck. I am waiting as well. Starting to regret my decision to change to Ooma.

I thought I'd be fair and give them the holiday weekend off. I suspect the main team doesn't work on weekends, and this is a long one.

Bobby, you there? Any news on personal blacklists? I'm getting a repeated call every day that I want to block. I tested personal blacklists again yesterday and it is still broken.

Just wanted to add my name to the list - went to add a number to my existing blacklist and got the "Service is temporarily unavailable" message. This is on a Core and Scout setup. Come on, OOMA. Why would we pay for Premier service if it doesn't work?

Update : this evening, the phone number I tried earlier to add showed up. And I was able to edit it to add the missing info.
