Remove Phone Number
Hello
I need to remove my primary phone number from my apple id and keep the account without phone number just with email address and security questions.
Thank you for your attentions.

If you have 2 Factor Authentication enabled on the account, you need the phone number.
You need to change/add the number on your Apple ID. Look in the Security section when signed in online. 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.
