The service of receiving and transmitting SMS messages can be disabled in different ways. You can contact the operator with a request to set restrictions on receiving messages or simply install the software on your mobile device.
Necessary
- - access to the phone;
- - Internet access.
Instructions
Step 1
Contact your network operator with a request to turn off the service of receiving incoming messages from other users. You can contact the technical support service, contact the employees of the client departments located in your city, or set up the service in the user account on the official website of the operator using the control panel for the services connected to you.
Step 2
Please note that when contacting the customer department of your cellular operator, you will need access to your mobile phone, as well as your passport or any other document that proves your identity as the official owner of the phone number. If the SIM card was registered to another person, his presence may be required. It all depends on the operator.
Step 3
When managing the service of incoming messages, provide access to your mobile phone number for the subsequent receipt of login and password data. Log in to the website of your operator and go to the section of services connected to you. Check the service for receiving SMS messages and click on the "Disable" button, then confirm the operation in the manner provided by your operator.
Step 4
When contacting the technical support service, find out its number from information booklets or on the operator's official website. If it is possible to control services using the auto answer system, also go to the services section and disable incoming SMS messages. If you have difficulty navigating through the menu items, contact the operator directly. Most likely, you will need to provide your passport details to identify you as the owner of the SIM card.
Step 5
Find the function of blocking incoming SMS messages in the menu of your mobile phone. Please also note that for many mobile devices, for example, Blackberry, specially installed utilities are provided that limit the receipt of information by you via SMS messages. Please note that many operators use the SMS messaging system to notify the company's customers about the changes being made, so try not to disable this service.
