How to know if you are unblocked on iphone

‎01-28-2016 08:58 PM

If I UN block a contact, how soon will they know they are UN blocked? (If I were to unblock sooner the specified time set by Verizon). Ie, So, if I unblock after a week. Will they instantly get texts? And will they get any past texts during block?

Blocking prevents them from contacting YOU; they will know they are unblocked if you respond to a text they send, or if they attempt to call you and the call goes through. 

So, if I unblock after a week. Will they instantly get texts? And will they get any past texts during block?  They would have received any texts you sent when you blocked their number.  You would not have received their texts, and no, you would not receive any texts that were sent by the blocked number while the block was in place.

Thank you! Once unblocked, can they instantly text or call?

I would assume so.  I haven't ever had the need to block and then unblock that same person, so I can't answer from experience.

Will someone know if I unblock them on iPhone?

Blocking prevents them from contacting YOU; they will know they are unblocked if you respond to a text they send, or if they attempt to call you and the call goes through. So, if I unblock after a week.

How can you tell someone is unblocking you?

You can request an unblock through other modes of communication. Try to be as polite as possible and ask them why they would block you over Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, Snapchat, or any other social media. A face-to-face meeting is the best way to convince them to unblock you if you know them in person.

Unblock a number from your blocked contacts list.
Click the Settings icon..
Scroll down to Phone, and tap it..
Scroll down to Blocked Contacts, and tap that field. ... .

How do you know if you're blocked on iPhone?

To know if someone blocked you on iPhone, send them an iMessage or SMS and see if it gets delivered. You can also try calling them to see if it rings once before going to voicemail – a huge red flag. It's hard to know for sure if you've been blocked, as these signs could have other explanations.
