Hello,

I have a phone number that I cannot delete in Whatsapp even this number is not on my contact list.

Hi,

If you're using Android, I invite you to check your sync settings. Go to Settings > Accounts and make sure the option Automatically sync data is turned on.

Select your Google account in the list of accounts and choose Account sync. Make sure the option is turned on for Contacts. You can also select the 3 dots at the top right corner to select Sync now to refresh the data.

Now in WhatsApp, tap the button to start a new chat, select the 3 dots > Refresh.

Hi, did you try restarting your mobile or uninstalling and re-installing WhatsApp?

If I change my number in WhatsApp, will my blocked contacts realize it after unblocking them?

Message not delivered but phone says ringing?

Hi,  I tried to message my friend on WhatsApp as they fell ill today. My messages were sent but not delivered so I guessed their phone is off which is understandable.  But when I tried to call on WhatsApp it says ringing (not calling) which I always thought meant that their phone is online and actually ringing.  So, messages not delivered but phone says ringing? The two seem contradictory.
