I believe you can do it online (search google) but not from a mobile. Certainly T-mobile have never let me do it when I have accidentally tried.0

No I used to work for t-mobile.0

Yes you can, so long as it is done on one of the internet sites. My old phone used to allow me to block unwanted numbers from sending txt or calling, ive only ever seen that feature on that phone, I think it should be available to all phones, especially when you read about TXT bullying. I wonder if its possible to phone a provider and request a number to be barred from a phone.:A:dance:1+1+1=1:dance::A

it can be done, as my brother was getting threatening anonymous text messages from someone from an internet site. All we had was the user id they had registered with, so I emailed the site directly notifying them of the content of the messages and whom they were from, and the messages soon stopped !0

Their is a webiste called https://www.sharpmail.co.uk and you can send texts pretending to be from anyone as you can edit it so it appears with someone elses name and number but you have to pay for each txt you send and you can also do anonomous emails
As the site says it is not for misuse or threatening people etc.....0
