Can I set my phone to block the sending of mms?

Best answer by Tyler C

Hey there ​@Timbernew, if you’d like to avoid being charged for MMS messages, then simply change your bill cap to £0.00, to block anyo ut of contract charges:

    Hi ​@Timbernew 

    Do you mean you want to block MMS messages being sent to you? As receiving MMS messages on iD Mobile does not incur any charges.

    If it because MMS messages are charged for, with an iD Mobile plan, then it is worth downloading an app that allows these to be sent for free e.g. Whatsapp, so you can do so without incurring a cost. 

    If you don’t want to use an app just make sure that any text message you send doesn’t  include multimedia content like pictures, videos, audio, or GIFs,

    If it is not any of these, can you please clarify the problem you are asking about and also what phone you have.
