What to do in regards to an ex friend and her repeatedly calling my land line phone?

Question - (3 April 2021) 3 Answers - (Newest, 6 April 2021)
A female Canada age 51-59, anonymous writes:

Hi and thank you to everyone who takes the time to respond to my question.

A couple of months back I posted on here about a so called " friend' with whom I had a falling out. She sent me a text that she had contacted the school board that I am a teacher for. She fabricated a story about me. The school board investigated and dismissed it.

I knew then I wanted to discard the friendship and blocked her number.

The problem is my landline. She has called a few times and left messages that I do not have the inclination to listen to. I think she has a nerve.

I continue to ignore her. I suspect she would like me to take legal action. She really is an entitled cow.

Why does she keep calling? Has she no shame? Should I contact the police. I had not considered tit for tat. She is a nurse and wonder what the nurses federation would think. All this was preceded by a major custody battle with her soon to be ex husband who wants custody of their three year old due to her drinking and addictions.

Ciar agony auntI remember your previous post. The woman really is specimen. Glad the school board dismissed her.

Assuming the landline is not on a VoIP system, you could record the messages with your cell phone. I imagine you have an app on it.

Then save those for future use as evidence.

Then delete the messages and block her number.

Failing that, have it changed and only give it out to those closest to you. You don't even have to give it to anyone actually, if those closest already have your cell number.

You might consider if you even need a landline.

Honeypie agony auntYou could change your number.

OR contact a lawyer and have HIM write her a cease and desist.

The more proof you have the "easier" it will be for the lawyer to proceed.

kenny agony auntShe sounds like she has got a problem, and i don't think you should go down the line of tit for tat as tempting as it may be. I think if you do it will be like trying to extinguish a fire using paraffin.

I think your best option would be too get in touch with your service provider and get them to issue you with a new number.

I assume you have done this with your mobile, which is why she has resulted to calling the landline.

Just change your number, or disregard the landline and just use your mobile.
