raro Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 I get for a while unsolicited SMS spam from some disco called the pier. It doesn't come from a real number so I cannot call them and tell them to take me off their list. As I am really not interested in watching someone performing life with a laptop I want to get rid of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pattaya28 Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 Are you in the vicinity of that disco when you get that spam ? If so, turn off your bluetooth. If not, call your mobile company and request no spam. Goodnight zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raro Posted October 18, 2014 Author Share Posted October 18, 2014 The problem is, it's not a number. It's some sms service and it cannot be blocked. I once had the number of a place in Bangkok that kept spamming me, first call was very friendly, second call less friendly and on my third call I threatened to come over and beat the pulp out of him, convert his place into a roller coaster etc. This one did the trick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime I've called AIS call center I've been offered a prompt to "stop SMS marketing" - never tried it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you pass a certain "location" an automatic advert is sent, whether you want it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
