Ira/ Joe, I just had it confirmed from Verizon, that someone you block will hear your voicemail, and if they chose to leave creepy can do so! Isn't that something?
From Verizon:
Hello Kevs,
Thank you for taking the time to speak with me.
I was able to locate the following information. You can also review this information at Apple's website with the following link
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201229 When you block a phone number or contact, they can still leave a voicemail, but you won't get a notification. They will hear your standard voicemail greeting that you have setup.
Messages that are sent or received won't be delivered. Also, the contact won't get a notification that the call or message was blocked.
Apple does not let you set a specific ringer or message for blocked callers.
Regards,
Jane Z

Hello,
Thanks for your response.
The service you are specifically using is through Apple's voicemail platform.
I personally believe if I block someone they should not get my voicemail it should provide some form of automated message. I hope that as Apple continues to progress with new software updates and phone changes they can implement something like that into their system.
Regards,
Jane Z.
