iPhone XR displaying and sending out the wrong number

I changed supplier and was issued a new sim with a temporary number. After reverting back to my old number my phone is still showing the temporary number under "device info" and I can`t change it. It is also sending out the wrong number when I send a message. Any idea how to change this?

New SIM and provider, old number transferred but new number still in iPhone Hi I changed my provider keeping my old number and old phone. The number has transferred but when I check my number in my phone it’s the new sim number. It’s the same in IMessages and face time too. My provider told me to go to Settings-reset- reset network settings. I’m worried if I press reset it will just reset my phone I will lose everything. Can someone please help. If I press reset what comes up? I daren’t press it. Thanks [Re-Titled by Moderator]
