Blocked texts

I have blocked a number and the texts are still coming thru. This person is harassing me by sending the same 2 texts over and over and over. How can I permanently block this number?

iPhone 12 Pro Max, iOS 16

After blocking the text sender, tap Settings > Mail. Scroll down to Blocked Sender Options. Select Move to Trash. Then, power your iPhone off … wait a few minutes … then power it back on. This may help, assuming all the messages are coming from the same phone number.


You can also try reporting the message as junk. To do this, on the main Messages screen, slowly slide the message to the left. Select Delete > Delete > Report as Junk. I hope this helps.
