In that case. you would need to add the numbers to your contact list first, then you can block them as explained in the support document you posted from.


Again, there is no bulk upload in Contacts. You need to add them manually one by one, then block them once added again one by one.


You can bulk import them from a CSV file on the iCloud.com website or the website for whatever other email account you may be using. Once you import them, you can then block them, individually.
