YOU are unbelievably wrong. If you have verizon, go to their website ([verizonwireless.com](http://verizonwireless.com)), log in, click on Usage Controls, sign up for extended usage controls ( a couple bucks per month) and you can block up to 20 specific numbers. They will not be able to call, text, or picture message you… however you will not be able to call or text them either. There are quite a few other features that are included in the package as well.  
You can also block all non-cell texts (such as texts from emails and instant messenger)  
It works like a charm for me.

edit:  
I just want to LOL again, because you after 2 years you failed to observe this feature that has been there for 3 years, and is clearly depicted on the actual website. Even the hilariously accented tech support people will refer you to this option.

lol. that’s not harassment. the police wouldn’t do anything even if you did call them.  
so, either check with your carrier to see if there is something similar to what verizon offers.

or, go the illegal route and make it so he can’t dial a phone.

well fuck

maybe it’s because it’s a self-service option and i didn’t get trained on that. there’s nothing in verizon’s point of sale/service systems that let store reps do it, though

Haha its a matter that you sounded so unbelievably confident and then even spoke for other carriers lol.

From your first post I recognized it as untrue and just grinned all the way down the page at your confidence lol. :spank:
