Option to block text senders is not present below messages

I have been getting a lot of spam texts lately. According to the information I have searched on the web, I am supposed to click on the message and select "block sender." However, the option to block the sender of a text message is not present below the unsolicited text from someone not on my contact list.


How can I fix this issue?

Thanks, I'll try that next time I get a spam text. I do recall, though, that clicking on the sender didn't bring up their number etc. to block.


It's strange how the tech info one googles on the web often says to do things that don't seem to be possible when you try to follow their directions!
