    Testi “probabilmente spam” da fonti autentiche. Com Reg per bloccare tutti i probabili testi di spam “entro la fine dell’anno”.


    Ho ricevuto "Probabilmente spam" testi etichettati da fonti autentiche come PayPal, Google e Wise (precedentemente Transferwise).

    Non potresti pensare un grosso problema, tranne per il fatto che questi testi devono essere bloccati automaticamente "entro la fine dell’anno" È abbastanza chiaro che il sistema non funziona.

    Ho inviato un’email a Comreg e mi hanno suggerito di contattare PayPal, Google e saggio! Wtf ?? Oh Ya, certo che telefonerò al CEO di Google ora e lo risolverò.

    Il problema è chiaramente con il "Probabilmente spam" Sistema di notifica, devono risolverlo, attualmente semplicemente non funziona.

    O almeno comunicare al pubblico che questi testi non verranno bloccati in futuro e continueranno a fungere da sistema di allarme di Arseway.

    Qualcun altro ha lo stesso problema o ha contattato com Reg a riguardo?

    EDIT: OK, le mie frustrazioni sono morte un po ‘. Prendendo a bordo ciò che la gente ha detto qui voglio far parte della soluzione invece di lamentarmi del problema. Ho contattato Wise perché quello era il testo che ho ricevuto questa mattina, Dio sa cosa accadrà lì in una società da $ 10 miliardi. I miei PayPal e Google hanno un paio di settimane, quindi potrebbero essere stati risolti nel frattempo.

    Shuggana di seguito ha elencato in modo utile il collegamento com Reg, eccolo https://www.comreg.ie/industry/electronic-communications/nuisance-communications/sms-sender-id-registry/

    L’ho inviato a Wise, esorto chiunque altro con problemi a contattare direttamente l’organizzazione e dare loro il collegamento.

      The common one for me is An Post. Every time I get a text about a parcel, its flagged as “Likely Spam”

      Weirdly, whenever I call Redclick, it tells me I am calling a spam number.

      It’s an absolute joke. My genuine text reminders from my bin collection about what bins are being collected is labelled as “likely spam” but the three or four texts a week from “AIB” about that payment to Foley’s Plumbing come through unlabelled.

      It is up to the companies or their 3rd party providers to register with comreg. The system works, it’s google, etc being lazy that’s the problem.

      Got it for a local food delivery place too. Will be a mess.

      I got likely scam for a Tesco survey after I had an issue resolved and one for suntransfers advising me about a pick up point collection on a recent holiday which was important.

      My dentist reminder message goes into Likely Spam.

      System works fine, the companies have to register some digital records in the right place to stop their number being flagged.

      Source: literally did it today for my company

      Onus is on the companies, as it should be. The amount of absolute shite scam texts I get was through the roof prior to this change. Now legitimately listed companies with ComReg just give them their Sender ID, it is then validated as a real company, and everybody wins.

      ComReg cannot do this themselves, as they cannot (and should not) possibly know the many different IT systems that tens of thousands of registered companies are using.

      Tech support for the company I work for comes up as “likely spam” even though I’ve called it dozens of times and it’s saved on my phone.

      It’ll be fun if those calls are automatically blocked.

    9. itinerantmarshmallow on

      Yeah I get it for Google Play payments and they’re shown as registered.

      It hasn’t happened on anything I need but ComReg are going too fast IMO and they need to introduce a reporting feature for end users to indicate stuff is tagged wrong or that a company should register.

      Also some company is registered as Google GP (Centric Health Primary Care Centre). Not sure if they have any affiliation to Google, could they (Centric and ComReg) get in trouble for this?

    10. hesaidshesdead on

      Text from my GP, for reminders for appointments & prescription renewals come up as Likely Spam too, god damn life saving spam.

      What fucking good is this when the spam is coming from the genuine short codes like AnPost?

    13. BlueBloodLive on

      I use my phone credit to pay for things on the Google store and when the subscription(s) auto renews I get a “Likely Scam” text, and then seconds later another text from 3 saying “we’ve renewed your subscription etc.”

      How can they not tell the difference between Google/3, and obvious scam texts?

    14. brbrcrbtr on

      My parents have gotten legitimate texts about hospital appointments and prescriptions from pharmacies marked as “likely scam”, blocking them entirely could really harm vulnerable people

    15. Rogue7559 on

      This is not comm regs fault. It’s the business texting you fault.

      All you have to do to avoid being labelled as ‘spam’ is register as legitimate with comm reg

    16. perplexedtv on

      Legit companies can get their numbers validated so they show up with their official name on calls/texts. These presumably won’t show as likely spam?

    17. Expensive-Total-312 on

      companies could really do with using a more modern way of communicating with customers, sms is really insecure and spoofing phone numbers is really common
