true caller has this verified call that doesn't show you who is calling now, it doesn't say the name of the business
 
These Monza MTN or whatever they called now are verified and getting through the spam call filter :mad:

You can still block them though.

I got one from Telesure investment holdings that was verified but I immediately blocked and reported.
I don't use the "block know spammers" because it blocks sms's and calls from my bank but this should filter them out.

Feels more like a scam on these telemarketers as they pay to be verified but after 1 day they will be blocked as spam by most users. If I go back to those records now I can see that they are marked as spam and will come up as RED.

Not sure if its just me but trucaller has become very slow and feels like its making my phone lag. It rings but is a few seconds before the TC screen comes up with the option to reject.

I removed truecaller a few years ago, they were sending to many push notifications and it was almost impossible to get ride of them.

What are you using now because I'm getting flooded with spam calls at the moment and so can't live without it.
 
Truecaller is rubbish in my view. Just use Phone by Google or any native app with integrated call blocking, or use something else like CallApp (though its ad placement is also garbage unless you purchase it). Then, again, I don't know what is available in the Apple ecosystem.

Also, when you do abandon Truecaller make sure that you unlink whatever is linked to Truecaller.
 
I see Hiya which powers Samsung's Smart Call is available in the App Store, but I don't know whether you have to sub or not.

Answer them and speak to these people. How do expect them to stop calling when you do not speak to them and swear the s**t out of them?
 
They probably have set their name with emoji or some other characters that are not supported by the app.

Then it shows up empty. Please report that number so they can fix it.
