Hey iPhonenonsavvy,


We'd happy to help with that. To get started, if you have the device containing the old phone number, you can just turn off iMessage and FaceTime and sign out of the account on that device. If you don't have that iPhone though, you can deregister the iMessage and FaceTime using this link: Deregister and Turn Off iMessage - Apple Support


For more details on what you're supposed to do before you get rid of, sell, give away, or trade-in an iPhone, check out: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


We hope the information above helps out, as those resources are going to be best equipped to address your concern.


Take care!
