Received a call at 4:45 am on 3/6/2013.  Sounded like a fax machine.  Hung up and they called right back.  When I called the number it was a recording stating that they would put my number on the "Do Not Call List" which it already is.  A search on the web of this company reveals several similar complaints.  Stop these people !!!!

    These [***] called me whilst everyone was asleep as well. Thankfully I use the Ooma premier phone service which lets me add any number to a Blocklist. It's true they may call with a different number but I'll do the same. What I forgot to do was use Ooma's "Do not disturb" feature before I went to bed. It seems there's no way to stop these social parasites from calling but perhaps if you use a service like Ooma it might help. I switched over 6 months ago after paying $50+ a month for my landline. Costco had Ooma for $160 so I grabbed it. Ported my number over so I got to keep my number and signed up for the Premiere service ($100/year). Nowy bill with taxes etc is $13/month with unlimited free calls to USA and Canada plus tons more features at no cost. Great call quality. Ooma also has a national database of blacklisted numbers that it'll use to update and protect your system. If more people start using the service the blacklist will grow faster and scum like Netprowa might have way fewer prey to function.

      I switched to Ooma May 2012.  And I agree with you, I have no regrets and am really digging the whole set up!  Because this NetProWa folks are using various numbers and I've added 3 to my Blacklist, I will contact Ooma to see if they can add this company to their community blacklist

    I received a call at 4:30 am on my home phone from what appeared to be an incoming fax from NETPROWA...  I called the number back and it asked we to leave my number to be removed from their fax list within 48 hours.   I never signed up to receive faxes from anyone in the first place.

    Got my call from Netprowa at 5:15 AM in CA from 720-606-7115. Does this outfit own all the 720-606-7xxx numbers? It's just a matter of time before a congressman gets one of these wake up calls--then you will see some action taken against this company.

    Caller ID says Netprowa. If you go to NetProWa
    www.netprowa.com/ the page says:
    "NetProWa helps people remove their number from unwanted calls and faxes. Enter your line number on this site and the calls will stop"

    I think the Netprowa name is forged and they are mocking the service

    I have 7 of their numbers blocked, they just called with number 8. Filed a complaint with the FCC asking for a cash settlement for harassment.

    Just got a fax from them, they are peddling life insurance. Their fax # is 5022724559. To have your number removed call 877-245_9106. Lets bombard them with faxes.

    To the person above who posted mocking us for being upset at 4am calls: I am NOT a business, I am a woman recovering from surgery, with elderly parents and a son serving over seas so yes, a 4am wake up call IS a nightmare. How wonderful for you to have no one you care enough about that a 4am wake up call is terrifying, for the rest of us it often means tragedy has struck.

    Got a call from them this morning at 4:30 AM.
    Caller ID displayed NETPROWA.
    Voice mail message was just beeps for at least 30 secs.
    It is possible that this may have been from a FAX machine.

    After receiving several 4 a.m. call from these creeps, I used the blocking service provided by my landline service.  The next day someone called again at 4 a.m., but this time the ring wasn't allowed to go through.  They called again about 5 minutes later and the same thing happened, only a partial ring.  It didn't wake the entire family and I was able to go back to sleep.  Ha! Ha! Ha!!!  Check with your phone company to see if a "No Solicitation"  or "Number Blocking" service is available.  Because Netprowa uses about 25 different phone numbers in the 720 area code, I blocked the entire area code.  I don't know anyone in Brighton Colorado.

    Called our business AGAIN, but now when I see the caller ID "Netprowa" I just hang up, because it's always a fax machine noise. They call from different numbers and I'm tired of filing complaints with Do Not Call & FCC, as it seems to accomplish nothing. I would never put my number on their website to be removed either, because I'm sure they just add your number to a list to KEEP calling.

    They called my number this morning and left a fax in my voicemail. I deleted it. I looked at their website and it is more than likely a scam.

    Received a phone call from Neprowa: 720-606-7090 and when my answering machine kicked in, fax machine noise started. I am tired of these scams. I am on FCC no call list, and still nothing. Where is a "Big Brother" now to protect ordinary people from these kind of scams, or "Big Brother" is only there to spy on its own citizens.
