Blocking a contact

Open full view...

Categories: Contacts

If a contact is harassing you, you can block them. This will automatically reject any messages from that phone number, Twitter username, or email address. For example, if the same person repeatedly sends offensive or annoying messages, select one of their messages and click the block icon.

Or go to the person's contact in the address book and select to block or unblock them.

Note that filters and blocking automatically reject messages but do not prevent you from receiving them. Filtered and blocked messages still count toward your monthly data usage because they are still received on your account.
