Your phone must be running low on magical fairy dust and manna. The only solution is to buy a new one.

Because if you badger them enough, they may give you a free one.

😳 WOW, someone totally fell out of the stupid tree this morning and hit a few bextra branches on the way down.

CS would know best because it is carrier specific if they do it. I know for example with USCC you can block them all together and with TMobile they will not. I have tried many upon a many times with both carriers when I used to work for them and always the same results. To not be able to send them, we used to tell people to go in and jack up the settings so that the messages wouldnt send. By you not being able to send them should cut your load coming in greatly since people will get sick of you not replying and just call you ! 😁

Its all going to depend on the type of Moto you have. It could be in the settings or it even could be buried somewhere in the "options" section under messaging.

I highly doubt that the manual will have a section for " How to jack Up Your Text Messaging ! " 🙄

On any phone you can simply stop reading the messages, that won't stop them from coming but what WILL happen is eventually her inbox will fill up and you won't be able to get any more in it, then you've effectively blocked it.

Motorola phones do often allow you to block specific programs but it will have the same effect as above.

But this would be a better question to ask in the Boost Forum.
