Iphone not blocking calls

On an iPhone, blocked phone numbers have to be removed one at a time. There is currently no option to select multiple blocked numbers and unblock or delete them in bulk.

On a Mac, however, you can manage your blocked contacts more efficiently and remove multiple blocked numbers at once. This makes the Mac a much more convenient option if you have a long list of blocked numbers to clean up.

So, if you need to remove several blocked numbers, it is considerably quicker to do it from your Mac rather than your iPhone. See the pic below

For blocked email addresses, however, the situation is different because blocking is usually handled by the individual email service. Simply sign in to your email account through its web browser interface—for example, Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo Mail, etc.—and open the service's Blocked addresses / Blocked senders settings. Many email services allow you to select multiple blocked addresses and remove them in bulk, which is much faster when you have a long list.

So, for a large number of blocked email IDs, it is usually best to manage them through the email provider's websiterather than through the Mail app on your iPhone or Mac.

when I get a spam call I hit block but I keep getting the same number calling me

The number that you see and try to block is not the number that is really calling you. Spammers use special software to disguise the number or numbers that are really calling you.

Nothing that you can really do about that.

We are at the point where we don't even answer the phone unless we know who is calling. If the call is really important, the caller will leave a message. Probably 90%+ of the time, a message is never left.

I got the "answer" but I don't like it that I have to delete them individually.

Borrow a Mac, have them add a guest account for you.

You can’t stop a number from calling you. When you add a number to the block list your iPhone still receives the call, but sends it to voicemail.
