Stop calls with Digital Phone Call Protect

Have AT&T Phone? You can stop spam calls, get alerts, and unblock specific numbers with Digital Phone Call Protect at no charge.¹

Digital phone call protect features

• [V] valid number calling: Soon you’ll see a [V] on your caller ID for some calls. For these calls, we confirm the call is originating from the phone registered to that number. (Remember to still exercise caution when answering a call from an unknown number.)
• Automatic fraud blocking: Each potential fraud call gives the caller a busy signal, and the call won’t go through. You can toggle this feature on or off.
• Call blocking: If you have a specific number you want to block, press *61 after the unwanted call to block that number.
• Call log: You can see detailed call log info.
• Suspected spam call warning: You’ll still get spam calls, but your caller ID will display Suspected Spam and a category like Political, Nonprofit, Telemarketer, Survey, or Robocaller.

Good to know: For [V] valid number calling, only our company and a few others are initially confirming the originating number is valid. As more phone companies come onboard and begin using this advanced technology, the percentage of validated calls will increase.
