my phone number won't connect to iMessage or FaceTime

Hello,

My FaceTime and iMessage are connected to a number that I don't know on my phone. When I bought the phone it was brand new, so there are no chances of the number being of a former owner and I've always used the same number and carrier.

I have tried signing out of my apple id, resetting my network settings, changing my Apple ID password, just switching off FaceTime and iMessage, but nothing works.

I have the right phone number on my contact info and everything except for iMessage and FaceTime.


Can anyone help me fix this issue?

iPhone SE, iOS 12.0.1

Does the number show when you log in below and if so, can you change it?
