Some phones such as Samsung have inbuilt options to block specific numbers. Other than that there is lots of info here :

O2 can change your number free if it is a specific problem and info from the website is here:

If you have an android phone you might want to consider downloading the AVG app from playstore which has options to block numbers :

Hi @Anonymous

We are all customers here like you.

I've asked for your mobile number to be removed to stop any potential spam also.

O2 do not 'block' numbers individually.

If you have a blocking facility in your phones settings then add that number to it.

I've looked here ;
http://www.phonepayplus.org.uk/Number-Checker/Check-a-Number-Results.aspx?ncn=07780146672 to check the number and it says no info is available.

If this is a known person to you then ask them to stop.

Follow the advice in o2's link I've provided in connection to 'Malicious calls and texts'

O2 can change your mobile number once Free of charge.

I have no affiliation whatsoever with O2 or any subsidiary companies. Comments posted are entirely of my own opinion. This is not Customer Service so we are unable to help with account specific issues.
