I’d like to deregister my old phone number from iMessage but I don’t have an access to the number an Apple phone anymore. The number is still connected for iMessage on my other device tho. How can I deregister the phone number from my Apple ID?

Do I still receive iMessage on the old phone number and old Apple device as well? How can I deregister the phone number from my Apple ID?

Where is the SIM with the Old Number, If it is not with you or you have given it back to the Carrier Service Provider, Then don't bother about it.


If you have it with you and want to use it with an Android device then put the SIM on any Phone (Apple or Android) and follow the GIF


Insert the same SIM into an Android or an iPhone. You may deregister iMessage online


Watch the GIF below. Here I have used another iPhone for the demo but for you, it may be your choice. Android or iPhone device.
