Blocking a group of contacts in one go

Is it possible to block a group of contacts? There are 74 people I don't want to reach me on my days off by phone, text, or any way.


I've created a new group of contacts called "WORK CONTACTS" by logging into iCloud on my PC.


But it seems there is no way to block this entire group from contacting me on my days off.


Am I missing it something? Please help as I am tired of work creeping in on personal time, and we all know how guilty we feel if we don't reply or answer.

Hey there!


Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities! We understand you would like to block an entire contact list at once, to ensure you get some uninterrupted time away from work.


While this is a great idea, it is not a supported functionality on iOS. We've referenced some articles below, that relate to how you can manage and block contacts.
