Text (spam/junk/annoying ex) blocking and reporting by sprint

after a while of searching on cb for a way to block specific numbers and spammers without the use of the blackberry firewall that blocks ALL sms messages, i stumbled upon this page from sprint.


Support - Article


for those of you on wap or dont wanna click, basically (most are self explanatory):

text to 9999 (Sprint only)
block <4-10 digit number>
block <user@domain> or <@domain>
block email --> blocks all email texts

allow <4-10 digit number>
allow <user@domain> or <@domain>

spam <4-10 digit number> --> this reports the number as spam and also blocks the number you text
spam <user@domain>

list --> to see what numbers have been blocked per your request
allow all --> allows all phone numbers to text you
allow email --> allows all email addresses to text you


take advantage of it!

thanks for this info in case some people dont know i recently started using the block text features alot so this helps to alot of other ppl i know these by memory alraedy :)

Thanks for the info!

I've used Sprint's webpage's text block feature when someone unknown to me (a number I didn't recognize) started texting me profane things (SERIOUSLY profane). Worked like a charm, no issues.
