Why are blocked numbers still texting me

This is infuriating. A person who is harassing me is still able to text me.

Yes, ive blocked their contact in my phone

ive added different variations of their number, including with and without international code

ive turned off iMessages (which is a pain because i cant use it to contact other people)

ive done a soft reset of my phone


yet they still can text me from their number!!!
