What does a blocked subscriber hear when they call WhatsApp - briefly?
When a blocked subscriber attempts to call WhatsApp, they will hear a message stating that their call cannot be completed as the number is not in service or is temporarily unavailable. This message is designed to inform the caller of the block without revealing its existence.
What does a blocked subscriber hear when they call WhatsApp - in detail?
When a subscriber is blocked by another user on WhatsApp and attempts to make a call, the experience differs from that of an unblocked caller. The primary indicator of being blocked is the absence of any ringing tone or connection message. Instead, the call goes directly to voicemail, but with a crucial distinction: the subscriber will hear only a single ring before the call is terminated and directed to voicemail. This swift transition occurs because WhatsApp automatically detects that the recipient has blocked the caller, thus preventing any further interaction. It's important to note that this behavior applies specifically to voice calls; messages sent by the blocked subscriber will not be delivered and there will be no indication of delivery or read status. Overall, the quick transition to voicemail after a single ring is WhatsApp’s subtle way of signaling that the intended recipient has chosen to block the caller.
