| 406101 | 2005-11-21 11:11:00 | My grownup daughter receives many objectional text messages which are not appreciated from an old schoolfriend. Is there a way to block a particular caller as there is with e-mail? It is easy to block an unwanted e-mail address but can a similar approach be adopted with cell phone txt messages Suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. |

So leave the messages on the phone in case telecom want to see them & make a complaint. They will almost certainly act on it. I'm assuming the offender is with telecom? | Greven (91) | ||

Even if they don't prosecute, they will probably say a few things which might start the "old schoolfriend" start the painful process of growing up. |
