I have a new mobile number (as the previous one was temporary whilst my actual number transferred over) and I can’t seem to deregister it as iMessage number as I don’t have it to get the text. What can I do?

See the Apple Support article(s) below.


Messages or FaceTime - Add or remove your phone number.  


You need to change/add the number on your Apple ID. You may have to add the new number before you can remove the old number. After the change, allow up to 24 hours for the change to sync. Before trying to make the change, sign out of Messages/FaceTime on all devices/computers.
