Looking for a guide on how to unblock someone in Messenger? We will show you in this post the
steps you need to follow to unblock that your friend in Messenger.
In this post, you’ll see how to unblock messages from someone you’ve previously blocked in
Messenger.
Note: Blocking messages from someone is different from blocking them on Facebook. If you block
messages from someone, but you don’t block them on Facebook, you’ll still be able to see their
Facebook profile. Depending on their privacy settings, you may also be able to see things like their
status updates, comments, likes and tags on Facebook. Bear in mind that when you block someone,
they’ll no longer be able to contact you (ex: send you messages, call you) on Messenger or on
Facebook chat.
