I found out that the way Verizon sometimes does it is that they "automatically" add certain numbers to my blocked list.

Big problem: if have a llloooonng list of blocked numbers, it's hard/impossible to know which are the ones you need to unblock.

Solution: unblock all of them! Then start to block again the ones that really need to be blocked.
THANKS!

most informative reply of all replies, which provides a solution, not just typing what should happen or that my 2FA works on my phone, or call the provider, which I explicitly stated i did.
