iMessage/facetime will not activate my new phone number/ Cannot add my new phone number to my Apple ID Account

Recently my old simcard snapped in half, I bought a new sim card and I have a new phone number yet I cannot add my new phone number to my Apple ID account. This is because it requires a security code to be sent to my phone number... which is not connected to my Apple ID account.

What I mean by not connected is my phone number is not in sign-in & Security, Email & Phone numbers section.

iMessage/facetime gives me "activation unsuccessful" error message whenever I try to activate it.

iMessage refusing to work is preventing me from receiving security code to add my number to my account.

I've tried the following:

• Turned off & on iMessage/Facetime
• Reset Network settings
• powered off and on my Iphone
• taking out my simcard and powering off my Iphone
• signing out of iMessage/facetime, signing back in

Is there a possible way to add my Phone number to my AppleID account without using the verification code.

I have full access to my Email and I have a trusted phone number, I just can't use my current phone number to access anything.

Its been over 24 hours.
