Blocking a phone number
Hay guys, okay so i have a t-mobile cell phone and i pay as i go. Anyway this started a month i think ago and this guy keeps calling me, hes called me atleast 6-5-7 times and ofcourse i dont pick it up. I just let it ring and sometimes he will leave a voicemail but i didn't set it up yet so i cant check it. I put his number in google along with the area code and i know his name,address etc.. well he lives in a so called "bad" area in my town. Im really scared now, my parents are worried too! Do you guys know how to block a phone number from your cell phone? Or should i go to the police? I rate too<3

You just need to decide if he`s actually meaning to call you. He might have the wrong number; and he keeps on calling you since he doesn`t know if he has the right number or not. Pick it up & say hello & see what he does. No offense, but I think you might be overreacting on this. Unless he is making threats or stuff like that, then it`s not really nessacary to go to the police. You should just go to your phone company & ask to change the number. And I also agree with xlaura03 - Just because he lives in a "bad" part of your town; doesn`t mean he`s going to be a bad guy. He`s not hurting you..
Another option is to call back the number & just say "Hello someone called me from this number?" & see what he says..
PS-If you decide to go to the police & tell them that you keep on getting continuous[sp] calls from someone, then they might ask for the number or something & take their phone for a month.They do something like that. I heard thats what they do, but I`m not so sure..

i definetely dont think its necessary to go to the police right away. at least not until sumthin serious happens. i cant tell you exactly how to block a number from being able to call your phone- but i know that it IS possible. i have a samsung from cingular, so you'd have to ask your own carrier. but i think the only logical thing to do would be to get a new number. that would solve all your problems. hope i helped. good luck. spitfire9631@yahoo.com

First you need to check that he is indeed trying to call YOU. Some phone numbers are re-used (I once knew someone who got the phone number of an armenian rock star and got all sorts of weird calls) so I would suggest answering once and seeing if he has the wrong number. If that's not the case and he's some freaky dude that continues calling you, you should go to the police and ask them what you should do about it. Good luck. ^_^

my sister had something like this, and she was getting really mad because it was using up all her minutes. you can go to the store and ask them to change your number, and i'm pretty sure it doesn't cost anything, but there might be an activation fee or something. you would just have to inform everyone that had your old number that you got it switched.
but i don't think this is something you should go to the police about, because he may just have the wrong number. and you shouldn't judge someone from where they live and automatically label them as "bad," you don't even know him.
hope i helped
