Hmm i know with some phones you can list numbers in the block list that will automatically give them a busy tone when they call. Sorry not to sure if your phone the option..

Go to :

Callblocker!

Setup a list of allowed callers or a blocked list for the tossers!

I use it, no more annoying calls

Why not just answer each call then hang up.
You'll have a smile on your face each time she does it as it's just cost her a flagfall and the first 30 sec!

Call blocker will block calls with no ID as well.

Or just post her number here.
Im sure somebody would give her a call to say hi.

Call your service provider and ask them you would like to block incoming calls from a number.

Funnily enough I had your exact problem and did call my service provider. Their answer was pretty straight forward. They can't do it unless they are told to by the police or a court.

The only way that can happen is if you ring up the police and tell them you are receiving threatening calls, that can include calls where the caller says absolutely nothing, or repeatedly rings late at night, and will probably end up with her being charged.

When I was told that I though "can't be f'd going through all that cr@p" and just decided to show up at her house and explain exactly what would happen if she called me again. < the legal version not some pumped up macho chick beating coward crap. It did work.

I have just tried out Callfilter,
it rejects the call after a short ring... not perfect but it seems to work and is available for the N95 8 gig

Anfy Call Filter [www.anfymobile.com/callfilter]

There are a number of call filters for symbian s60 phones which give you the option of blocking a call, or of assigning custom answering machine messages for each number. Since the answering machine is on your phone and not network voicemail you can still answer a call after it goes to your machine.
I would suggest getting one of these apps, setting up a custom answering machine message for her and sending all private numbers to another answering machine message which will let you filter any calls and only answer the ones you want to.

or change your number.

go to s60v3.com and you can "try" as many of these different apps for "free" for "as long as you like"
