AT&T will charge $4 month to automatically block all spam robocalls.

By Liam Tung

AT&T this week announced that it will by default block fraud robocalls and suspected "spam-call alerts" for customers at "no charge". But to actually block all spam calls automatically, customers will still need to pay $4 a month.

AT&T said the change was an expansion of its existing AT&T Call Protect service, which has a free version and paid-for version with more blocking features.
