Thank you or the screenshots.


Troubleshooting Blocked Callers:

The number is being blocked. So, is there another Contact with this info?


Blocking Out Callers:

Use Malwarebytes Mobile Security. The free version blocks popups. The paid version blocks out known spam numbers, and lets you add your own and report items to the Developer. So, consider using it. Read the following post to see how to use this software: Blocked numbers - Apple Community
