Disable text on 551

Hey everyone,since you were so helpful on my last ? maybe you can help me
again. Is there any way to disable the text messaging on my phone or if
possible set the number of allowed text messages(I know the last one is just
wishful thinking but....). I know in my last question John said that
flashing would not help but is there anything that I can do to help their
phone, it seems to be missing allot of calls, I know it is getting to be
old as far as phones go but my daughter really likes this phone.

Thanks,
Glenn

To turn off texting, give your phone carrier a call.

We provide phones to our employees and have texting and Internet access
turned off ... voice only.

I don't know if this simplistic action will do what you want but how about
deleting the service centre's number from your 'phone? No use if your
daughter knows how to replace it but it may do what you want.
