Here we go:

What happens when you block a number on Android?

First off, when a blocked number tries to send you a text message, it won’t go through, and they will likely never see the “delivered” note. On your end, you’ll see nothing at all. As far as phone calls are concerned, a blocked call goes directly to voice mail.

How do I permanently block a number?

One method to block calls is by opening the Phone app and tapping on the Overflow (three dot) icon at the top right corner of the display. Select Settings > Blocked numbers and add the number you’d like to block. You can also block calls by opening the Phone app and tapping on Recents.
