Duplicate contacts

I consistently get duplicate contacts on my iPhone 12. I delete them, I merge them and they just keep coming back. How do I make it stop?

iPhone 12 Pro, iOS 15

Troubleshooting Duplicate Contact:

Perform the following...


Contact Apple Support:

  1. Go Here: If you See Duplicate Contacts after Setting Up iCloud Contacts - Apple Support
  2. As it Reads: If you see duplicates in Contacts on iCloud.com, visit Apple Support for help.


Apple Contact Info:

Why the Wait:

Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
