What is Report A Call To T-Mobile Scam Shield?
T-Mobile takes call reports two ways. In the T-Life app, open the Manage or Account tab, choose Scam Shield under your devices, tap See all under Recent activity, pick the call and select Report Caller, then choose the category that fits.
There is also a browser form at callreporting.t-mobile.com, and this is the one worth knowing about. T-Mobile states that corrections are made within 48 hours of a verified request — which makes it the practical route when the problem is the reverse of spam, namely your own number or a number you rely on being labelled Scam Likely when it should not be.
Businesses in that position can also register their numbers free at freecallerregistry.com, which T-Mobile links to for exactly this purpose.
How do I do it?
- Open T-Life, select the Manage or Account tab, then choose Scam Shield.
- Under Recent activity tap See all, choose the call and tap Report Caller.
- Pick the category that best describes the call, then tap Report.
- For a mislabelled number, use the form at callreporting.t-mobile.com instead.
- Allow up to 48 hours for a verified correction to take effect.
