It’s a pain but talk to your service provider and tell them you want a new number without paying a fee. There is no good way to stop it because there’s to many scam artists once they get your number. Good luck
When I called T-mobile, they told me basically the same thing as srthill said. You just tell them you feel “harassed” and they’re legally obligated to give you a new number for free if you want it.
Oh no! I don’t want to have to change my #....
Answer “stop” that will usually stop it. unless, you will have to call your provider and ask them to stop this. they can fix it without you having to change your #, no worries :)
I get this all the time. Replying STOP seems to stop one and start another. Much like email spam just delete them and ignore them.
This question has been asked before, and I need help on this.
I said “Stop sending me crap.” to one of them once, and have not gotten an e-mail from them once. (It’s been two months).
Don’t sendd emails, call your carrier, they can stop this.
