I own a k700i and have a pain in the neck annoy me all the time.

I have tried the "accept calls from list" feature. This means that only ten people one my list can call me. - pretty useless feature

I want everybody to be able to call me except one phone number

any ideas would be appreciated.

If you know the number some companies i believe charge for this service but you can have the number blocked completely so they hear only the engaged tone i know wheni got nuisance calls i phoned my operator and they said that if i had the number then it would beb possible to stop this happening but unfortunately i had the caller that witheld SO hope this helps!!!

The easiest is to save the number in your contacts, set personal ringtone as silent and he'll get sick and tired of you never answering and you won't know he has called till you see the lost call.

Or he might just report the "pain in the neck" to the police.

sell your k700i, add a little more cash and buy a p910i which can do this effectively...

Good one, Tranquil... There's a Symbian Call Manager which i used in the past, excellent for diverting those numpties whom i don't want to talk to to some number in Timbuctoo... Or simply letting them get an engaged tone.

If your network has the caller tunes facility, then allot a horrible tune to that caller. That may irritate that person equally.;-)

If you googled it you should find it. I think i downloaded my copy from Handango, not sure since i'm not Symbian any longer. You could also try Prodigits s60 forum, altho discretion is advised, since they're a bit sharp-tongued, so rather use the Search function... Will pm an alternative to you in a moment as well.

Hi! I like the idea, but I have a T630, so I cant use recordings as a ringtones, only MID and IMY melodies. I composed a "silence" IMY melody on my t68i, but when I set that melody for a ringtone, the default "Sony Ericsson" melody is played. Any ideas how can this be done?
