If you are blocked, you will not see a 'Delivered' status for your messages. Instead, the message will remain undelivered, indicating that the recipient has blocked your number. To confirm if you’ve been blocked, try calling the person; if the call goes straight to voicemail or doesn't ring, it's likely you are blocked.
