Is there a way to block a number on my phone?

[proud gonzo]

Some random number keeps text messaging me, and those things aren't free. Is there a way to block text messages from a certain number?

it wouldn't be so annoying if the messages weren't:
"@1I need a girl friend now im jake"
"What up date me"
"Im jake i need a girl friend can you date me"

:mad:

[BigRedJed]

:O Sorry, I thought you'd enjoy them. Or possibly that you needed a date.

[Scott D]

I'd think it'd just be completely blocking the number.

[frankensooner]

Is it a text to landline or text to cell?

[frankensooner]

because I don't think you can block either.

[Hot Rod]

If you have AT&T, I believe there's a way to go onto their website, log into your account, and block numbers in general.

Text them back:

"i will date u cuz i need a babydaddy"

"wait where r u going?"

[frankensooner]

We got one of those Text to landline calls yesterday. It came from Unknown Name, Unknown number.


And who knows, Jake might be desperate enough to be a baby daddy. ;)

"i am bipolar so most guys won't date me u sound nice Jake"

[frankensooner]

"jake i'm n 2 coprophilia, r u game?"

[Okla-homey]

Just call Doleo and tell him to stop it or you'll have OlVet beat him up.

[Hot Rod]

"Im jake i need a girl friend can you date me"

"That's funny! My name is Jake too! Sure, let's go for it!"

[Veritas]

PG, what kinda phone you have?

[Hamhock]

"i am bipolar so most guys won't date me u sound nice Jake"

i'm not sure that will do it. there's a common belief about crazy chicks...

[OKLA21FAN]

PG, what kinda phone you have?
you might want to start out with 'what are you wearing'? before getting into that phone stuff :pop:

you sayin' it's a different number every time? If so, you should post your telephone number here, so we can check into this problem you are having....

Or better yet post up Jake's number and we can all run up his phone bill with calls at 3 am.

Have fun with it if you want. I'm liking all these suggestions :D

"Jake": 918 919-1949

Just call Doleo and tell him to stop it or you'll have OlVet beat him up.nah, it's not doleo's--I have his memorized. I give it out every time some tool asks me for my number. :D

So he's a good Green Country fellow. You could do much worse....
At least he's not some d-bag from OKC/Central OK.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

that pretty close to one of my numbers but I didn't do it....

[frankensooner]

918 # must be a crank head.

[Penguin]

If there's a way to block a number from sending a text, I sure would like to know.

[Whet]

who do you know in Miami, OK?

The carrier is in Miami, but the caller is in Tulsa. Do you know any suspects, other than bri?

[Howzit]

"yes i will date you, perfect timing, im between outbreaks"

[frankensooner]

Doesn't Pat live in Tulsa?

[kbsooner21]

At least he's not some d-bag from Waco/Austin.
I hear ya SicEm

[proud gonzo]

mother****er! started getting text spams again. If i ever meet the person sending out these messages, I'm gonna kick the bastard in the face. :mad:

[A Sooner in Texas]

I don't know if there's a way to block numbers, but contact your carrier and see if there's something they can do. And if you hear of a way to block them, will you post it please? TIA and good luck!

Bwahaha.

Um, TrendMicro actually makes Mobile Security for mobile phones - does stuff like blocking spam text messages. Except you have to have a smartphone / PDA to install it.

Five bucks said he ate some of your pie at the tailgate.

YOU BROUGHT THIS UPON YOURSELF WITH AWESOME PIE.

But i probably ought to start looking for a new phone anyway. My screen tried to die the other day. That worried me. But I turned the phone off and took out the battery and when i started it back up it was fine.
