Blocking Texts From Specific Numbers

• 1). Navigate to the My Verizon website (support.vzw.com/faqs/TXT%20messaging/FAQ.html) and log in using your Verizon Wireless account information. If you do not have an online My Verizon account, click "sign up" to create one.
  
  
• 2). Click the "my services" tab, then click "Verizon safeguards."
  
  
• 3). Click "spam controls," then select "Internet spam blocking."
  
  
• 4). Enter the phone number from which you no longer wish to receive texts, area code first. If you are receiving nuisance messages from an email address, website or five-digit number, you may enter those here as well and they will also be blocked.
  
  
• 5). Click "save" when you're finished. Your phone will no longer accept text messages from those numbers, email addresses, websites or codes.
  
  

Blocking All Texts
