Blocked number

I have an I14pro. WHY am I still getting texts from blocked numbers?!! Read all the comments and gripes. Has Apple REALLY not solved this problem?

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 17

First of all messages come from your carrier, not Apple. Apple simply built the phone. The service you pay for delivers messages. And scam artists are very adept at spoofing numbers. Even if it appears to be a number you blocked, the actual number is most likely not the same number.


I get that since you're holding a phone made by Apple, it's easy to blame them, but Apple doesn't control SMS messaging at all. This is an issue affecting every cell phone from EVERY manufacturer. Contact your carrier and complain to them.
