7. When does blocking NOT work?

  • Calls routed before the block was added will still complete.
  • If the caller uses a different phone number, the original block has no effect.
  • Blocking a number does not retroactively delete its call or SMS history.



8. Troubleshooting

Issue: I can’t find the Add number button.


  • Check that you have Admin or Supervisor privileges.


Warning

If a blocked number still rings your lines, email support@myoperator.com with the call log attached.
