How do i delete numbers from my block list?

[Android Central Question]

I want to block my ex and permanantly delete his number from my Samsung S7 (so no drunk dialling). Is this possible? I have tried deleting the contact and then blocking but the number still ends up in the blocked list?

Welcome to Android Central! You can delete the contact and just leave the number as a blocked number. Why do you want to remove the number from the block list if you want him blocked?

The number needs to remain in the blocked list for the phone to keep the number blocked. You should still be able to delete the contact.

Your carrier may be able to block the number for you, I know Verizon can do it. When blocked at the carrier level you can remove the number from your phone.
