Q: How do I remove an alias from my Apple ID?

How do I remove an old xxx@icloud.com alias from my Apple ID when there is no Delete button? Further, I can create new alias and delete them again because new alias come with a Delete button, but how can I remove the old alias? Any suggestions?

iMac, iOS 8

    Oh I have exactly same problem...

    I once had my sister-in-law borrow account to test Appstore (don't know why she failed first registration).

    Unaware that she by accident create her name alias email *********@icloud.com & ********@me.com associated with MY icloud (I manage to replace back my h****g@gmail.com as main apple ID).


    Now I cannot remove her @icloud & @me - listed as alias but don't have remove function, and my email sending from iPhone pops only @icloud.com/ @me.com as mailing address only.

     

    This is toooo annoying & frustrated.

     

    Some-one please HELP!!!

    Big Thank you.

    You cannot remove aliases that end in @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com. These aliases are internal to your account and cannot be removed. The only way to be rid of these aliases is to completely delete the Apple ID account. It may be annoying but this is how the coding works within these types of aliases. If there is not a delete or remove button next to the aliases, they cannot be removed from the account.

    Have same issue. This seems to be a major problem with all Apple accounts. You would think they would have a solution by now. Especially with all the complaints about this particular issue. Currently talking with Apple support and they still can't find a solution to this problem. The solution is really very simple they just don't want to implement it or allow it.
