    Berate them with “foul language”. Depending on the country, they will mark your number as hostile, and it will be removed from their contact list. Since they share lists, this will propagate to other lists, as well.

      Funnily enough, I got mad at CVS being far too persistent on my meds when I kept texting no I don’t need a refill that I finally said “fuck off” and then it finally stopped pestering me. I didn’t expect it to do anything. I was just mad.

      I did that around the 2020 election and got a very sad text back that a real human sends those texts and didn’t deserve the “abuse”

      So if anyone is wondering, 'fuck off" worked great in rural America years ago. Maybe it still does, because I didn’t get any local calls last year asking for my money and vote
