Apple Pay verification impossible.

I created my Apple ID three years ago but didn’t employ Apple Pay. Now I want to use it but my telephone number is different. I have deleted old one and added the new one to my profile. Anyway, after typing in my card details the program claims it will send the verification code to my OLD PHONE NUMBER and will not proceed… aarghh…
