    Why didnt safety net work?
    He could still leave voicemail but you could have that disabled.

    If he is been 'abusive' then you should be going to the guards, otherwise he might still finds ways to get in contact. For example you changed your number, and he still managed to get it.

    The C3 is a Series 40 phone, unfortunately you need a (Symbian) Series 60 phone to run safety net.


    dgk - Sorry to hear you're having this problem, I'm not sure theres much you can do with the C3. Is he calling from a private number or is their number showing?
    I agree with Davy, you should get in contact with the gardai.

    Call your operator and have the number barred from texting/calling you.

    All operators now have this as a service since it was brought into legislation last year under Anti Bullying laws.

    Indeed- I've done it to prevent many nuisance individuals contacting me. No questions asked by Meteor.

    Pointless when he could be using a separate number.

    She needs to go to the guards, only pussy footing around otherwise.
