Unauthorized call forwarding

My calls are being forwarded to 916-xxx-2995. I did not enter this number nor do I know to whom it belongs. My call forwarding setting is turned off yet the unauthorized forwarding number is locked into my settings. I have used the codes to deactivate, and it confirms that is has been deactivated, but the settings confirm that the number is still saved for forwarding.

what can I do?


iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 15

Hi Immaculate_Contraption,


Thanks for reaching out to us here in Apple Support Communities! We can understand why you'd be concerned about your incoming calls forwarding to an unknown number, and we'll get you pointed in the right direction for help.


If you're unable to remove the call forwarding options from the iPhone using the steps in the guide below, we encourage you to contact your wireless carrier, so that they can take a look at things from the network end.
