I think you’ve got the power dynamic wrong here
If OP is having to contact loads of estate agents, it’s probably because they live somewhere with in-demand property.
That means those estate agents are going to have loads of potential people to sell to
Someone who wants to do something differently than everyone else is going to get a lower priority over someone who just does everything they are asked without question.
The estate agent doesn’t really lose anything by doing this, OP risks reducing their chances at getting a place, ostensibly one they need to live in at some point soon.

Living as someone who’s in a WhatsApp country, the absolutely won’t respond to texts. Nobody texts anybody, even old people don’t use SMS.
If I get an SMS I won’t even see it because I have notifications disabled because all I ever got was spam.
