You won't know if you're blocked.
To find out, you have to make a call.

As said, you won't get a message when you're blocked.
The only way to be sure is to make a call.

I think you have misunderstood my question, you said I wouldn’t know if a text had been delivered or blocked. The only way to know is to make a call.
how would I know if I’m blocked if I call the number? Ie is there no dial tone? Does it just ring out? How would I know if there is a tech fault or if I am blocked?

How would you know at that point?

And how would I know then, no dial tone?

Well then you have to pay a visit since there's no other way.
BTW, this is not a technical problem.

Well, you can ask til you're blue, as said if the number is valid and there is no answer
but you can call someone else then you are blocked.
So it's not a technical issue.

Thankyou so much.
i have owned Apple products for many years and have never asked a question on here.
Bearing in mind the response and the tone of the response rest assured I wont ever bother again!
