Re: "I wanted to update my email/Apple ID"


If you no longer use the email address that's associated with your Apple ID, you can change it. You won’t lose access to your contacts, purchases, or other account information


Apple support have an article online that can help:

How to: Change your Apple ID - Apple Support


Also: while you are signed in:

Re: "and update my phone number"

First sign out of Messages and FaceTime on all devices. 

Sign in to your Apple ID account online:

appleid.apple.com

In the security section 

add the new phone number first, to allow deleting of the old one.


Allow 24 hours for the change to update wherever the number is used for Apple

Check if Apple Pay is available in your country or region:

Check if you are signed in (to your device) with your updated Apple ID: Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support


Then Apple Support's article : How to: Set up Apple Pay may help:


If needed:
