When you send a text to a number that has blocked you, the message will appear as sent on your end, but it will not be delivered to the person who has blocked you. You won't receive a delivery confirmation, and the intended recipient won't see or be notified of the message. Essentially, it's as though the text disappears into a void, with no indication on your end that the block is in place.
FAQs & Answers
- Can blocked contacts see text messages I send? No, when you send a text to a number that has blocked you, the message is not delivered or visible to the recipient.
- Will I get notified if my text is blocked? No, your message will show as sent, but you won't receive any delivery confirmation or notification indicating you are blocked.
- Why does my message appear sent but never delivered? If you are blocked, your phone sends the message out, but it gets silently discarded by the recipient's network or device, so it never reaches them.
