Can a blocked contact on WhatsApp still call me - briefly?
When you block a contact on WhatsApp, they are no longer able to call you. Blocking effectively prevents any form of communication from that specific user, including voice and video calls.
Can a blocked contact on WhatsApp still call me - in detail?
When you block a contact on WhatsApp, they are effectively cut off from communicating with you through the platform. This means that they cannot send you messages, make voice or video calls, or see your profile picture, about section, or any changes to them. The key aspect here is that blocking a contact on WhatsApp is a unilateral action; once blocked, the user loses all ability to initiate communication with you through WhatsApp.
However, it's important to note that simply blocking someone on WhatsApp does not prevent them from reaching out using other means of communication, such as email or traditional phone calls, if they have your contact details saved elsewhere. But within the confines of the WhatsApp platform itself, a blocked contact will be unable to call you or send messages.
Additionally, blocking a contact on WhatsApp also prevents them from adding you to groups or seeing your status updates. This level of restriction ensures that the blocked user has no means of communicating with you through WhatsApp until and unless you decide to unblock them.
In summary, once a contact is blocked on WhatsApp, they cannot call you or send messages via the platform. This block is comprehensive and applies to all forms of communication within WhatsApp itself.
