TL;DR: A three-year subscription to the RoboKiller Spam Call and Text Blocker is on sale for £47.27, saving you 49% on list price.
Phone scammers are really ramping up their efforts to hoodwink consumers. Between the fake car warranty expiration call, the make-believe HMRC, and the student loan swindlers, it’s not even worth picking up your phone these days. But, of course, the one time you don’t pick up will be the important phone call you’ve been waiting for.
Sort through the chaos — and give scammers a dose of their own medicine — with a subscription to a robocall blocker app like RoboKiller. A three-year subscription is on sale for just £47.27 for a limited time.
RoboKiller is one of our top picks for a robocall blocker app — particularly for getting revenge on the scammers. It works to eliminate 99 percent of spam calls using a predictive call-blocking algorithm that intercepts spam calls as they roll in, in less than 0.01 seconds. It prevents your phone from ever even ringing, so you can carry on with your life without interruption.
Beyond just blocking the call, however, it actually answers, then wastes the robocaller’s time as revenge. You can select from a library of hundreds of pre-recorded Answer Bot responses that actually interact with the telemarketer on the other line, so you can trick them into thinking they’re talking to a real person. The resulting “conversations,” if nothing else, are hilarious and satisfying.
The app is highly rated on both the App Store and Google Play Store, as it is designed to work seamlessly on either kind of device. Other features include text spam filtering and customisable block and allow lists. Unfortunately, you cannot use RoboKiller on a phone plan with prepaid minutes, but any other smartphone is a contender.
It’s been a while since we last featured this app, but for a limited time, you can sign up for three years of RoboKiller for only £47.27 — that’s a 49% discount from the usual cost.
