Using this trick you delete the blocking friend definitly. In case of unblocking both need to ask again permission to connect again each other…..or not?
I think it doesn’t work nowadays. I followed the procedure and could add the contact without any problem.
This worked for me in August 2020. All of the other info on the internet I could find was suggesting that my contact had not blocked me, but I wasn’t getting any replies to my messages. However, because of this method you have described, I now know where I stand concerning the person who, I just learned, has indeed blocked me. Thank you so much!
