Suggested Contacts in Contacts App

I have over 10,000 suggested contacts on my iPhone. How do I get rid of them? The same contacts are repeated multiple times

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


Remove the email account that stores your contacts in the IOS mail app and re-enable Contacts.


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