If you delete a blocked caller, the caller remains blocked. Your phone does not need to store the contact for the block to be effective. Blocking is based on the phone number, which stays blocked until you manually unblock it via your phone's settings.

FAQs & Answers

  1. Does deleting a blocked contact unblock the number? No, deleting a blocked contact does not unblock the number. The block remains active based on the phone number until manually removed.
