Community Standards
Reports help thousands of people decide whether to answer a call. These rules keep them honest, useful and fair to everyone, including the people behind a number.
Do
- Report only calls or texts you received yourself. Describe what happened in your own words.
- Stick to the facts: what the caller said, what they asked for, which company they claimed to be, the time of day.
- Choose the right type (scam, sales call, silent call, genuine business...) so others get a clear picture.
- Say when a caller was genuine. "It was my GP surgery" is just as helpful as a scam warning.
Don't
- No personal details of private individuals: names, addresses, email addresses, other phone numbers, account numbers.
- No accusations you cannot back up. Write "the caller said they were from my bank and asked for a code", not "this person is a criminal".
- No abuse, threats, hate speech or discriminatory language.
- No advertising, links or self-promotion.
- No fake reports: don't report a number you were not called by, and don't post many reports to push a rating up or down.
What we do
- Comments with links, emails or long numbers are checked by a moderator before they appear.
- We edit out personal details and remove reports that break these rules.
- Repeated abuse can lead to blocking.
Flag a report
Every report has a "Flag this report" link. Use it if you think a report is false, abusive or contains personal details. A moderator reviews flagged reports, and reports flagged several times are hidden until then.
Is it your number?
If you own the number and a report is wrong, contact us. We review every request and will remove personal details and anything that breaks these standards.
