Hi I recently tried to login to my childhood Apple ID account which is locked (I happen to remember the email but I don’t have access to it anymore). but it’s asking for the old phone number of this account (which I’ve asked for around my family but it’s unknown) is there any other way of gaining access like proof of addresses etc?
