Add and displaying contact problem

[Insomniamama]

I went to add my friend, who lives in the UK. Had his number entered in properly, and whatsapp tells me he dosent have the app. Deleted his contact and reentered it. Now his contact won't even show up at all in whatsapp no matter how many times I refresh it. Its like I never added his number to my phone at all. Any help with this? I have a galaxy s6

Make sure you entered the contact number correctly.

Also, has the contact confirmed that he still has whatsapp installed?

Confirmed its installed. Any new numbers I add aren't even showing up to invite, especially my international (Canada) friends

How much long do you have on your current subscription or do you have an iphone?
