How to block messages and phone calls of one contact?

Hi,

 

Now already for a couple of weeks I have problems with someone who keeps sending me messages.

I went to my provider, but they can't do anything about it or I have to go to court first.

How can I block 1 contact on my BB Bold??

 

Kind regards

First, delete that person as a contact.  Next, if you've repeatedly asked to not be bothered and you are still receiving communications from that person, that's harrassment and it's illegal.  A polite message to the sender that the police will be investigating the situation if it doesn't stop should be enough to make it stop.  If the messages continue, contact the police.  Harrassment by cellphone or face-to-face, it's all the same.

 

 

I'm no lawyer but I hope I've been helpful to you.  :smileyhappy:

Thanks Bill!!

 

I informed the person already that there will be police investigation if it doesn't stop, but now the messages are like: hey, still seen no cops!! Stuff like that! 

If there would be a solution without all the police and court stuff, then I would like to take that one. :-)

Then tell the cops. They will visit, do nothing, scare sense into that person.
