Sometimes, whether it's an ex or an obnoxious telemarketer, a person just won't get the message and stop calling you. That's when it's time to block their calls.
Enabling call blocking for a specific number means you will no longer receive phone calls, FaceTime calls, text messages, or iMessages from that number. Here's how you do it:
If the caller you wish to block is in your contacts, open the Phone or Contacts app, and tap on the name of the person you wish to block to bring up their contact details.
If the caller you are blocking is not in your contacts, you can block them from the Recents or Voicemail (if you have Visual Voicemail) sections of the Phone app by tapping the 'i' next to their name.
Scroll down to the bottom of the contact details and select Block this Caller.
You can manage your blocked callers in your Phone settings. Just go to Settings>Phone>Blocked.
Obviously, a blocked caller can still reach you by calling from a different number. If your blocked caller is a serious problem, you may have to consider changing your phone number to avoid contact with them completely.
