Contacts still on old phone
Deleted & factory reset etc to give my phone to my Mum & notice all my contacts are still on there, as well as my Mum’s. Any ideas why & how I can remove without having to go through manually?

Sounds like you did not properly reset the device.
What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

i mean that you not reset properly. I think that you need to try to reset another one time, but first get off your account of the iphone
It’s very frustrating as I followed the instructions to the letter. And also it’s not even ALL contacts, just some so that suggests a blip rather than user error?
I did exactly what the instructions said & because not all contacts are duplicated then it suggests something else too?!
Are you sharing an email account?
I do have two shared accounts but not with my Mum. Could that be where the contacts have come from?
