Duplicate contacts in Icloud

I imported a vCard with a bunch of contacts this morning and it duplicated every contact in there. Is there a quick way to delete all duplicates? The work flow said to contact support if it was on icloud.com.

Also in www.icloud.com sign in with Apple ID and password , go to contacts press shift , option and command keys and tap the duplicate contacts to get selected , open the gear icon and click on delete button .



You can also delete the duplicate contacts from address book Make sure , in system preferences > iCloud the Apple ID and password is signed in , your web mail address is kept same as Apple ID address , also in system preferences > iCloud the box of contacts must be checked .


You can use any desired method to delete duplicate contacts .
