Do as suggested in this document --> Add or remove your phone number in Messages or FaceTime - Apple Support


If the above doesn't work then have a look at --> Deregister iMessage on your iPhone or online - Apple Support


If you still have questions or problems:


To contact Apple, click here --> Choose your country or region - Official Apple Support

Select your country (also look for "other" regions), then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
