What do you do when Bm refuses to communicate in written form?

Lately dh will text Bm and she won't respond but will call over and over right after he sends the message. Last week when he text her asking her when where he was meeting her to drop ss off she called him and he needed to know so he just answered and she told him that her text is "broken" and he needed to talk to her on the phone. Bm has an iPhone (we know this because the text messages show she's using an iPhone) and ss is always talking about how he plays on her phone so I doubt her text is broken. Dh doesn't like talking to her as it is but now it's like she's trying to corner him into answering the phone or to call her. What do you guys think?

To add it is somewhat dhs fault as he was sticking to text only before and she was actually starting to comply and he thought since she was being normal/cordial they could do phone communication but of course she's acting cray as always so he wants to go back to written communication and now she's saying her text aren't working which I highly doubt is true

Strange that she can receive in but not text back. DH might try texting, when she calls back, let it go to voice mail. If she's got something to say, she'll leave a message. If she is the one initiating the call , don't answer, let it go to voice mail. Dh will hear it and can decide if he needs to text her a response.

Whether she's lying or not about being able to text, she obviously knows what they say and that one arrived because she calls right back. If she's playing the 'text don't work' game, she'll not get anything out of the game as she still won't get to verbally speak to DH. Might work until DH can get a communication order modification.

Thnk you everyone for your thoughts. When Dh dropped Ss off this past Sunday he asked Bm about it again and asked her if she blocked him. He said she got defensive and said she has to call her carrier and to get it fixed. He just reiterated to her that she needs to get it fixed because he wants to communicate via text only. So we'll seeeeeee... I still call bullshit though.
