Removing vs blocking members from a Facebook group

Before we would show you the actual processes, I just want to clarify one thing.

What is the difference between removing a Facebook group member vs. blocking him? Not much, but there is one important distinction.

If you only remove a member from the Facebook group, he can join back later any time he wants.

However, if you block someone from a Facebook group, he won’t be able to join the group again. What’s more, he won’t even see that this group exists. A blocked group member is also someone who can’t be invited to the Facebook group.

But first, let’s how to remove a member from a Facebook,

3. Search for the member you want to remove.
4. Click on the three dots.
5. Select ‘Remove member’
6. You can also check the box to delete the profile’s recent activity.
7. And also check the boxes to not only remove but block him from the group.

Now, this Facebook group member has been removed from the group. It might take a couple of minutes to get him removed from the group.

Can’t remove someone from a Facebook group

If you can’t remove or block someone from a Facebook group, the most likely reasons are the following:

1. You are not a Facebook group admin. Even moderators can’t remove someone from a Facebook group, so you have to have admin access to the group if you want to block or remove people from the group.
2. If the person has left the group before you decided to block him, there is no way to block or remove him as his profile won’t show up under group members.
