Manage and use your Apple Account --> Manage and use your Apple Account - Apple Support

Sorry if I wasn't clear. I cannot access EITHER the phone number or email that was on this account, so as far as I can see there is no way to get started signing in.

Thanks for the attempt to help, but again I have access to Neither the original email Nor phone number, at least one of which seems to be needed
