Generally, ad's come with free apps downloaded. Paying a premium for the app might remove some ads. Where are you seeing Spam, emails?

Can you explain how this works? Is the adblock an add on to the Chrome browser or a separate browser? Is it a free application or a premium application? When I do an application search, many of the results are replacement browsers or they are developed in countries that I don't free comfortable allowing that much tracking of my usage or other information to.
I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

you forgot to mention you only get to block 5 numbers.
i've gotten messages in dnd window that have come from an email address (explained by cs) & email address isn't visible.
the problem i've found is when i've blocked a number on the phone, they can still leave a vm, which i have to take the time to delete.

bearone21, let me help expand on the call blocking options/services we've got. With our free blocking, you can block five numbers in 90-days increments, refreshing the block each 90-days. There's also our Smart Family option, which can block up to 20 numbers permanently. For more details about Smart Family, I'm going to link the FAQ page: http://spr.ly/6584DL5un
There's also our new Caller Name ID app/feature, which can help filter and identify Spam/Fraud callers: http://spr.ly/6585DL5uX
You do also have the option to block callers through your device. Depending on the device, you may have voicemails routed to a blocked caller section (on an iPhone).
I hope you find these extra options and their information beneficial.

and Verizon will be happy to charge you an additional fee for this service. The increase in Spam calls over the last month has been ridiculous. Just today I received 5 spam calls from 5 different numbers. So limiting the ability to block calls to 5 numbers is ridiculous. Even 20 is unacceptable when I get 5 different numbers a day. I should be able to block as many as I need to and this should be part of the standard cost. My phone is a work phone so people call me that aren't in my contact list. Once you answer, they know there is a person there so guess what....they just keep calling. In the least, they could always add the no-more Robo feature (which should not be an additional charge).
