How do I retrieve contacts that were lost?

Hi Ayyymo,

We'll be glad to look into this with you further. If your contacts were accidentally deleted, you can attempt to restore them by following the steps in If you accidentally deleted your calendars, bookmarks, or contacts from iCloud - Apple Support

"Restore your contacts or bookmarks from an earlier version

1. Sign in to iCloud.com.
2. Scroll down to the bottom of the window, then select Data Recovery.
3. Select Restore Contacts or Restore Bookmarks. 
4. Select Restore next to the date before you deleted the content.
5. Select Restore again to confirm. After the restore completes, you get a notification on iCloud.com and an email at the address on file with your Apple ID.

Restore your calendars from an earlier version 

Several things happen when you restore an earlier version of your calendars. 

• Your sharing settings get erased. You can share the calendars again, or you can ask the owner to share them again.
• iCloud cancels and recreates all of your upcoming, scheduled events, then resends the invitations for you.

To restore your missing calendars: 

1. Sign in to iCloud.com.
2. Scroll down to the bottom of the window, then select Data Recovery.
3. Select Restore Calendars. 
4. Select Restore next to the date before you deleted the content.
5. Select Restore again to confirm. After the restore completes, you get a notification on iCloud.com and an email at the address on file with your Apple ID.

If that doesn't work, then they may not be recoverable.

We hope this helps.

Cheers.
