Hello mfcrisp,


We understand that you're attempting to block a contact, and had reviewed the article: Block phone numbers, contacts, and emails on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Blocking their phone number will only block contacts originating from that number. An email address will need to be blocked separately. The article outlines what to do in order to block them from multiple contact sources.
