Unlike some Android devices, contacts are neither stored locally on an iPhone nor in SIM. They are synced to an email account that you had Google, iCloud, AOL, Exchange, Outlook, Yahoo or any Other


Log in to the email client using a web browser and delete them.


If you have a corporate email account added through a profile on your device, please check with your organisation's system administrator.
