This post will outline to you how to unblock someone you’ve blocked from accessing your
Messenger account. This post has been updated to suit the latest 2019 Facebook Messenger feature
updates.
Facebook recommends you block people that makes you feel uncomfortable in one way or the other
while on the website. However, people do sometimes mistakenly blocked friends which they never
intended to have blocked. Conversely, people that may have blocked their friends on Facebook
Messenger for reasons best known to them may want to unblock them after they might have resolved
their differences or come to terms.
If either of the above is the case with you, that is whether you intentionally or mistakenly blocked
someone on Facebook Messenger, the good news is that you can unblock the person.
In this post, I’ll show you the easy step-by-step guidelines you need to follow to unblock someone in
Facebook Messenger. I will also show you how you can block messages from someone in Facebook
Messenger if the need be. I guess this is necessary so that those that would want to use the guide in
the near future can know how to go about it.
