after I starting using the Google Fi phone service I have never received a single spam phone call Period. ... evidently Google has mastered art of shunting spam calls ... its an incredibly valuable benefit and my bill is half it was with ATT or similar ... so this problem is solvable given sufficient tech savvy ... Google should peddle this service to land lines too so places like hospitals can benefit


I have been using Fi from the start. I can't say the same. I get spam calls all day long. I always tell Fi it was spam, but it just comes in on a different number the next time.

What I am saying is this -- I don't think Google solved the problem. I think you are just lucky.


I'm on Fi and get them all the time.


Yeah same. Tons of spam calls on my fi number.


Early FI adopter. I still get a fair amount of spam calls, but the number of calls does seem to have gone down recently. So maybe they are making some progress.


Anecdotal, but I have Google Fi and I receive about 5 to 10 spam calls a day.


The google is the problem on itself
