Do you have another Apple Device besides your new iPhone?

If so, on that device you can go to:

Settings

Tap/Click on Your Name at the top

Select "Name, Phone Numbers, Email", and change your phone number there.


If not, then you can go on a PC, go to appleid.apple.com and sign in with your AppleID email address and password.

Then select "Personal Information" and find your phone number and change it to your new one!


Hope this helps!
