how to retreive contacts after changing appleid?

Hi,


I changed my appleID from work email to personal email at appleID.apple.com. I signed out old appleID in settings>icloud and my contacts are wiped out. I signed in with new appleID but my contacts still empty.


How can I retrieve my contacts from icloud?


Thanks,

iOS 8.4

Did you create a new Apple ID? If so that is your problem. Go to appleid.apple.com, and click manage, sign in, and then change your primary email address to your personal address. All of your contacts should still be in your account. Go to iCloud.com and try signing in with both accounts and see which one has your contacts stored in it.


Feel free to respond if you have any further questions!


Best Regards,

Ryan
