How to unblock a number that is in my contacts on iPhone

I need to unblock a number that is in my contacts. Instructions I've seen here say I should be able to do that from within the Contacts app but there isn't an unblock option when I bring up the contact in question. Finding their number in my list of blocked numbers is not possible given the length of that list.

Any other suggestions?

Hello... If you know the person you want to unblock, then iMessage them from your iPhone, now click on their icon "Name" at the top of the screen, this will bring up a screen about the contact person's information. You will see "CALL - VIDEO - MAIL - INFO" tabs. At this point click on "INFO". Now scroll down to the bottom and you will see "UNBLOCK CALLER".

I hope this helps you...
