WhatsApp is one of the most preferred modes of messaging and is widely used worldwide. While the WhatsApp has eased the messaging process, it also allows a user to choose whom to talk, and block! It does so by providing block and unblock feature. If you block someone, you won't be able to receive messages from the person. However, he will be able to send messages on your number which will not be delivered. Many people don't know how to find out whether they have been blocked on the WhatsApp or not. Here we list the indicators which will help you find out if someone has blocked you on WhatsApp or not:

* You won't be able to see the contact's last seen or whether the person is online in the chat window. 
* You do not see updates to a contact's profile photo.
* Any messages sent to a contact who has blocked you will always show one check mark (message sent), and never show a double check mark (message delivered). 
* Any calls you attempt to place will not go through.

If all this holds true for you, then your contact has blocked you.
