Before I block the person I want to block, I want to know what happens if they try to text or call. For example, do they get a specific text/voice message indicating they've been blocked? Or do they just get a generic error message? Or do they just think their text/call went through without fail?

It depends. How are you planning on blocking the calls and texts? Are you signing up for a service (like SmartLimits) or are you doing it directly from your phone (if it has the capability)?

OK, I would like to know as well. I have an iphone and the blocked number is a blackberry phone (not sure of their service). What message do they get when their text or call is blocked? Thanks for helping me.

You will never recieve the texts, if they call they will get a error message or go to voicemail. On my samsung magnet it would say:
Call blocked from: name here
