Custom Block Page

Hi I'm finding it really difficult to upload a customised url block page. Each time I do it only the default page appears. Out of around 20 times of uploading the edited txt message (custom block message) it's only ever updated to the new message on one occasion. Is anyone else having these problems? I'm running 4.1.3ThanksRod
