Hey rajfrompacifica,


We understand some of your contacts are disappearing occasionally.


Given the number of contacts goes up and down, this indicates to us that there's likely an issue with one of the accounts linked to your contacts staying connected.


To resolve this, you could either transfer all of your contacts over to a single account which isn't having this issue, or else you could delete the account affected and remove those contacts from your iPhone, reset the password to the account, and then set it back up again using these steps:


Add an email account to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


For more info on locating missing contacts if unable to get them back, also check out:


If you accidentally deleted your calendars, bookmarks, or contacts from iCloud


Take care!
