The number that I want to deregister no longer has cell service so it cannot receive a ‘code’. How do I get the old number off of my account?

The number that I want to deregister no longer has cell service so it cannot receive a ‘code’. How do I get the old number off of my new phone # as a ‘reachable at’ number in settings?

Go to

SETTINGS> > Your Picture >> NAME, PHONE NUMBERS, EMAIL. >> REACHABLE AT >> EDIT >> DELETE.


In some instances it may be necessary to associate an alternate phone number and/or email address with the account in order to remove the old phone number.
