800NotesReviews of 800notes.com

This website is terrible. I searched a phone number that kept calling me and saw it said it was a scam. But after researching it to the office where the past due bill originated because the debt collector referenced the specific office and provided their phone number of an account number, I posted comments saying that this turned out to be a real debt collection company. I called the original bill source and found out I did have a very past due bill that I forgot about and their bills didn't forward to my new address. I tried telling people they should look into the original source, find out if it's a true debt, and pay the office directly (NOT the debt collection company) to avoid a collection on their credit. There are two men literally harassing me in comments saying they "know" I'm trying to perpetuate the scam because "I must work with them". Not only that, they started asking why they couldn't find my employer information anywhere to "prove I'm real". WHERE AND HOW would they be able to find that if I only provided minimal (and private!) information to post in that forum. Even if only moderators are able to see this private information, then this website is even more disturbing than I thought. The harassment and the security concern is terrifying and I'll be finding where and how to report this site. It's not a place to post informative comments about 800 numbers. It's a place that it seems "frequent fliers" and moderators use as another social media type of platform to get their fill of protecting their hateful lives onto others and harassing them, along with numerous security and anonymity violations. I am terrified that I ever posted there, and there is no way to delete my comments to protect myself from further security violations.

Mar 3 2021 Contrary to their website "report unwanted calls to help identify", my posts of frequent hang ups/spam calls have now been deleted. I have been plagued( as everyone else ) with spam calls since 2014 The worst year 2016 was over 1000 hang ups and scam calls(the IRS has a warrant out for your arrest) Then came Nomorobo. Blocked 85% of spam calls. What a blessing. Around that time, I came across 800notes. Here are people with the same issue, comrades in arms against spam calls. Or so I thought. Over the years I have reported hang up and spam calls, I start to get "we don't believe you" posts. Really? I'm the only one who gets daily calls from unknown names /numbers who hang up and don't leave voicemail? Or scam auto warranty? Or the IRS is after you? And God forbid you mention FREE Nomorobo or ANY Voip by name, as it will get you "post pending review by moderator". You would think a website dedicated to reporting spam calls would want people to use a free service, like FREE Nomorobo, to help stop spam calls. After all, that is their stated goal, " report unwanted calls". You would be wrong. And that's too bad. It's now run by individuals who have their own agenda, and it's not reporting hang-ups/spam calls. My advice? If you get your telephone service from your cable company, ask how to turn on Nomorobo. It's FREE. If you just get internet from your cable provider, do a search for Voip. I use ooma, cost under $20 a month, includes nomorobo. Way better than POTS from Verizon/Frontier @ $60 per month. Now this requires you to do some home work. Ask your friends who they use. The more people use who spam blockers, like FREE Nomorobo for home use, or FREE android google phone app which has a FREE spam blocker, will reduce spam calls for everyone, as it gets added to the data base for spam calls. And you will not find that information on 800notes. I know, they actually admitted they don't allow the FREE service Nomorobo to be posted. Don't think so? Next time you get a spam call, post the number to 800notes. Mention you reported it to nomorobo block list. Bookmark the post. Check back a day later. You will see "post pending moderator review". Or has been deleted. Stay safe and block spam for everyone. nomorobo dot com google phone app verified calls And if you have read this far, I don't get paid a dime for this. My payment is less spam calls, as spam calls are reported, it's applied to everyone's community block list.

I agree with previous reviewer that 800notes is a bully. I tried to stand up for someone who was being bullied, and they turned on me. They deleted my posts, then called me a troll, which I am not. I always used respectful wording, make good points, explained why the number that called me was a robo, and it's like they didn't even read it. There are much easier ways of finding out if phone numbers are a scam. I will not post on this site again, and don't forget, this ends with 'dot com.' They are tracking you. I am still trying to get my sign up removed so they don't have my email. Not that easy.

They patronize the collection agencies which is a direct conflict of what 800 notes is all about. Collection agants hijack threads to post antagonistic or misleading information to entrap their victims after they can no longer take them to court by law. 800 notes is some piece of work I tell ya!

Have been using this site for years but when I defended myself from surly, snarky, arrogant comments by their 'Insiders' (those with registered Names/Icons: "TheRealSerious","Slim" and "Heinz57") the 'moderator' had all my comments removed - even though I made numerous valid points. This site seems to encourage & 'employ' mostly impatient, self-congratulating *men* who have nothing better to do than to criticize the very people whom they encourage to use the site to report unwanted spam calls. Many of these 'insiders' use their position to display their self-determined 'superiority' and belittle & disparage those whom they think are less than (dumber) and by that inferiority have somehow caused themselves to be victim of - or have failed to prevent - these calls, even though most of us are inundated with this scourge beyond our control. If only we ignorant peons were all as smart and tech-savvy and have lives that EXACTLY match those 800Notes wizards who grace us with their wisdom and advice that is perfectly suitable to *all* situations, no matter what, with no room for diversity of experience.
