Hi there,

Thank you very much for your review of our Blocky app. We truly appreciate all feedback, whether positive or negative. However, I was disappointed to see that you chose to leave us a review without giving us the opportunity to properly investigate this issue for you.

I wish you the best of luck with your store and hope you have a wonderful rest of your day. :)

I am a fan. Started using this after receiving too many fraudulent orders. Easy to install, easy to set up, seems to be working well. I was amazed by how many views/orders from outside the country that it was able to block.
