1. I think

You can only do it through your provider, not on the phone.

2. Why did you give me your number if you were only going to block me?

4. Me too. There is a number I would like to block on my cell, but

according to the manual (can you believe I actually read the manual?) this is not possible.

5. I don't think there's an easy answer...

It probably depends on your provider. I know I was getting text messages from some random person that wouldn't stop even though I told them I was not the person they thought I was. My provider at the time said I couldn't block one number from sending me messages- it was an all or nothing thing. That seemed really stupid to me.

For the record, I handled it myself by calling the person's number probably 50 times over the course of the day (and night). They got the hint.

Unknown numbers are another matter....

7. A blocked call implies non-accepting.

However, as to the question you meant to ask, you probably need to call your cell phone provider. The providers seem to have differing ways of handling the situation of blocking certain callers.
