When You Block Someone Do They Know It

• #ane

I wanna block someone. Both of us have iOS 7, if that matters. Once I block them from my
Terminate, will they be notified either immediately or say when they try to send me an iMessage or call?

Further, say I unblock them at the end of the week, expecting a flood of letters from her end to come up in. ----or does information technology not work this way?

Information technology is not a block by the carrier, it doesn't forbid information technology from being sent, only from being seen on your terminate.

Yeah spot on. The block is from within the IOS which is why it goes to voicemail and the letters appear sent etc. I guess its clever that they are able to implement a level of call blocking which is controlled by the user. A complete carrier initiated block request is a long process!

I take like 2 people blocked, and I set up information technology up to block my home number to test information technology. When I did that, it still rang thru, and then went to voicemail. Does yours become directly? I think that is a much better idea than ringing for a while first. The latter makes it seem like you're ignoring them as opposed to your phone being off..

Yes there'south a you tub video exam where the phone rings once and and then voicemail begins. text messages still say delivered.

If you cake someone, they do not receieve any notification that they have been blocked. The but style for them to know would exist for you lot to tell them.

Furthermore, if they transport you an iMessage, it will say that it was delivered on their phone, then they won't even know that you're not seeing their message. All the blocked feature does is cake you from seeing the telephone call/mesesage on your phone. It is not a cake by the carrier, information technology doesn't prevent it from being sent, simply from being seen on your end.

So subsequently the blocker unblocks them they will Not run into any messages that the person being blocked sent while they were blocked??

i had this question to-when they call what happens does or but band until they hang upward or dos it say they are blocked???

It rings until they go to voicemail. Essentially as if yous didn't respond the call (except you didn't even go the phone call).

Ok thanks- is there a way to block people texts- I haven't figured that one out nonetheless.

Yes. Same way as calls are blocked essentially--when you block someone it blocks calls and messages as far equally I retrieve.

Question on blocked iPhone users

I recall I may have been blocked past another iPhone user. Everything I've read says even iMessages will say delivered as normal...my ? Is: If the iMessages go thru as "delivered" Simply at certain times ALSO go thru equally text messages, (like when the receiver is out of svc range or phone is off) is that a good indicator that I am not, in fact, blocked?

If the person has you blocked volition it yet tell that they "kept An audio message from you"??

I think I may have been blocked by another iPhone user. Everything I've read says even iMessages will say delivered equally normal...my ? Is: If the iMessages get thru as "delivered" Simply at sure times ALSO go thru as text messages, (like when the receiver is out of svc range or phone is off) is that a good indicator that I am non, in fact, blocked?

Why dont you telephone call them and notice out? When information technology rolls to voicemail, its a different greeting than if you're not blocked.

if someone blocked you from their iphone i use to become a bulletin saying the att customer is not available does this still happen and too if they blocked you do they have to unblock y'all to send u a message??? and if not and they can however text you practice they run into ur response?

Possibly if they blocked you from the carrier side of things you would get a message similar that, if they blocked you lot from iOS and so in that location wouldn't be any message of that type.

I don't call back if they need to unblock you to send you something (I think they don't need to do that), but if you are blocked and you ship a message to them (whether its a reply or just your own new bulletin) they won't get information technology.
