Blocked caller - why can they leave a message?

Blocked caller can leave a message on my iPhone 5s. I don't want the blocked caller to be allowed to leave a message. How can I change the settings?

I called my carrier and then cannot block the caller from leaving a voice mail message.  However in response to your post above, the fact that i received a voice mail appeared on my phone and the message was there.  Other posts suggested that the caller could leave a message but i would not have access to it,  That's not what happened to me.  Is there any way to change the settings so that the caller cannot leave a message or the message that is left is not accessible to me?

  • When I'm in a call, I can hear beeping like I'm getting another call but the name doesn't show up and the only way I can see who called is if they leave a voicemail

    I have an employee who has an issue when on calls. When he is in a call with someone, he can hear another call beeping in but no name shows up. The only way he can see who called is if they leave a voicemail. He says the phone is up to date with software. Wondering if anyone can help me figure out what is going on.

    Morning katesnazzy,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    There are different methods for enabling and using the following features, depending on your wireless carrier's network technology
    For more information on this, take a look at this article:

  • Why can I delete individual messages, but can only clear (delete) ALL "recent" calls? It should be possible to delete individual calls!

    Because you can't. Plain and simple. This is asked at least once a day here.

  • Why can I receive text messages but not send?

    Why can I receive text messages but not send. This has been happening for about 10 hours.

    Thanks for the response. Must be smart phones. My daughter has a dumb phone and she can send out. I tried deleting my text messages on the Verizon website, but they won’t delete. It must be on their end. Chat line was busy forever, until they shut it down.

  • Broadband Talk - "Sorry, you can't leave a message...

     Hi!
    I have my BT Broadband Talk account set up to send unanswered calls to voicemail. Under 'Calling Features > Messaging':
    Divert calls to Voicemail when unanswered
    However, whenever I call the number and let it ring out, I get this message:
    "Sorry, you can't leave a message at the moment"
    Then it hangs up!
    Is there something else I need to do to enable VM on my Broadband Talk number?
    If it means anything, I have BT 1571 set up on the 'normal' home number.
    Thank you!

    Why can't I send messages to my friends that have the same thing as me? They can send to me. It says that they aren't registered and they are though.

    What phone do you have?  And how, exactly, are you trying to send pictures to Facebook?  It sounds like you need to log into Facebook on the phone or re-enter your username and password for Facebook.  Somehow the connection between your photos and Facebook has been lost, and you need to get them connected again (verify your login information)

  • Why can't I receive messages from a Droid phone on my IPad?..

    Why can't I receive messages from a Droid phone on my IPad?..

    SMS is part of cellular voice communication.
    iPads do not do voice over cellular.
    iMessage is Apple devices only.
    If you want to send and  receive SMS you will have to download an app from the store, such as text+.

  • Can you leave a message, such as "if found call" on the lock screen?

  • Why can't I see message details on old statements?

    I used to be able to view the list of text message sent/received on statements, up to 3 months back. Now, I can only see the list of calls made. Why did they take this feature away?? Or am I missing something?

    Log on to your account--go to View Bill--. There will be three tabs, labeled Bill Summary, Charges by Line, Bill Details. Click Bill Details. Then there are two text links, Voice details and Data details. When you click data details, you will get the messaging details if available. Mine are for my Sept, and August bills, and my current bill, but no further. I can get call details for one year, but texting for only as far back as August.

  • IPhone in lost mode, if a person guesses the 4 digit passcode can they see/send messages and contacts etc?

    I have lost my iPhone. Someone has found it. I got an email message when they turned it on and called it immediately. Unfortunately they turned it off, after the first call and now it goes straight to answerphone. It has been in lost mode for three days. My question is simple, if the person guesses the four digit passcode, can they send/see text messages and emails, can they see contacts etc. Do they need my apple id and password to access and use the phone or simply the four digit code?
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards.

    Yes, i appreciate that. I do hope they don't, however the passcode is VERY simple... If they guess or if it was actually taken by someone that knows me or saw me enter the code, then can they use the phone normally once it's entered, will i get an email or will the phone come out of lostmode on the app? Sorry for the repeated question. I will shortly hit the 'this solved my question' button
    Thanks again

    As I've said in that post, your ridiculous fix didn't work, and I have to ask call creator to close call for everyone and create a new one everytime I need to rejoin it.
    Do the work you're paid for, please.
