We have t-mobile and have had a couple incidents also. According to them there is no way to block the number from calling. I ended up just having to change their numbers. $15 bucks a pop.

Haven't been any issues that much until recently with my daughter's boyfriend. (I bought the add a line for him for an extra $10 a month on my plan - saved tons of money because of the free mobile to mobile. Rather pay $10 then hundreds $$$). Anyway, he's got an old girlfriend that seems to be "stalking" him I told him that I would be happy the change the number again but it seemed that his parents needed to talk to hers and if they wouldn't I would.

I'm not sure about the issue with your daughter or how trival or not trival it is but things are scary these days and it may warrant talking with the other girls parents (although that may make it worse for your daughter) ,if it's really serious getting an anti harrassment order may be necessary. Tell her that not texting back isn't showing that she's afraid of them, it's showing that she is more mature and the bigger better person to not let them suck her into their BS.

Good luck

Just went back and re-read. Why in the world would the kids from the old school be calling and being mean? Weird, what purpose would it serve. I'm with you. She's in a new school with new nice friends. Move on and let the old ones go. I'd say to ignore them also. Maybe go with the change her number, old friends probably wouldn't get a hold of it if she was careful who she handed it out to.
