How can I block all numbers, except for a few, from calling a cell phone?

My son can't seem to understand what peak time minutes are on his cell phone - and neither do his friends. However, he does need to be able to call a few numbers. Can I only allow certain numbers to be received and/or dialed out? If I can't find an answer - then he can't have the cell phone. He says, ';Please Help!';How can I block all numbers, except for a few, from calling a cell phone?
Most phones have restrictions that you are able to set up. What is the make and model of your sons phone? Usually, you will find this under security settings. Store only the numbers you want to allow him to call in his phone book, then set the restrictions to 'phone book only'. Be sure to change the lock code to something he won't be able to guess.





I'm not sure how old your son is, but they have phones called 'Firefly's' for kids. These phones allow parents to store in a few numbers. Check them out. http://www.fireflymobile.com/





Good luck.How can I block all numbers, except for a few, from calling a cell phone?
you cannot, that is a problem
the best option you have it to call your service provider customer rep. to get information on the availability of that kind of option
I would suggust getting a different cell phone plan. Really, that is your best option. If you're getting charged alot because of ';peak hours'; charges, you can find a plan that has enough minutes for your sons phone, (and your whole family's phones) without ';peak'; charges.





Depending on the age of your son, you could try a different phone. Many mobile services allow you to use phones Such as the ';MiGo';. It has about 22 pre-programmed numbers that you choose. Only numbers on that list can be dialed, and only numbers on that list can dial the phone. Some even have a GPS locator feature, so you can even find where your might be in an emergency, right from the internet. You can buy these phones anywhere phones are sold. Toys R Us even sells them.
