I have ATT and we are trying to save the text messages that evil bitch has been sending us in order to build up evidence. We are at about 200 important text messages saved but soon his message box is going to start deleting the old ones. How are you ladies saving these text messages? Any ideas?

If you have an iPhone there is a program SMS message saver. It's about $30 but worth it.

I've heard phone companies carry a feature where you can request them to send a print out of text messages...its for a charge, but I'd imagine so worth the hassle.

Thank you ladies. I will try and give them a call tomorrow. He doesn't have an iphone. That would have been pretty useful.

In your contacts list, if you create a contact that is your home email address, you should be able to forward your tests to your email. Works for me. Just go into the text message, then edit, then forward...

Hope that helps. Maybe it's what you need.

I tried forwarding them to my email but the email doesn't show the number that it came from. Would these hold up in court not showing that it came from her number?

That's what I am not so sure about. Backing those up with your phone records may show what you need. Sorry to not have the answer....

I got the idea from someone here and when SO's ex wanted my # I got a google voice account she's the only one with that # all texts and VM are transcribed and sent to my email, as well as forwarded to my phone. I don't ever have to worry about losing her crazy texts (was awful fun when SO ran out of minutes on his phone and was using my GV account I got tons of her crazy rantings all in a little file)
