ackkkk.. how do you get someone to stop texing you??

For months now.. some guy keeps texting my phone from a hotmail account in spanish. I dont speak spanish!!! and have several times texted back wrong #.. and keeps texting.. like 5 times in a row.

i called my phone company and they said only way to block it would to take away textin option all together.. this is the way i comunicate with dh through out the day so thats not option.

I now have stopped responding to the textes.. and he keeps on doing it.. will this guy get the hint im not loidis.

Send him something really obnoxious, or threaten that you will call the police. Even though you won't it might scare him.

DH has this problem also and people calling him all the time that he doesn't know. We are going to change his number. I think it is the only way to get it to stop.

They want to reinstate the policy then if i change #.. dont want to restart the policy.. just want to finish this one and get away from them.

Can you get someone who speaks Spanish to text him back from your phone so you are sure he understands?

tell them that you are contacting the phone company and will take them to small claims court for the cost of each text.

ETS: Is it spam?

I understand. I wish there was a way you could block the number.

That's weird. I don't get the cell phone companies. I needed to have a telephone number blocked from MY cell phone. Sprint told me they could ONLY block TEXT MESSAGES from that number, and not calls. I think both options should be open to everyone from ALL the cell phone companies. Chat Icon

what about saying "stupid don't you get you have the wrong number, stop texting me" which translate to "stupido tu no entiendes que tienes el numero equivocado, deja de mandarme mensajes" LOL

I thought you meant in general. Chat Icon I can't stand when people text me...I have minutes! Please use them--I don't like to pay extra to tell you something in 60 seconds that I could tell you in 2 seconds on the phone! Chat Icon
