“My Number” is wrong

Recently changed to a Lebara SIM card and transferred my old number to it. But the My Number but under Phone settings is still displaying the temporary lebara number that now no longer exists. I can send and receive texts and calls to some people, but not my partner. I can’t FaceTime or iMessage because the number won’t load. What do I do now?

Why is my current number not associated with iMessage/FaceTime? A month ago I switched providers and took my number with me, so my number doesn’t match the number the sim came with. This was fine until a week ago, and now I’m getting a warning message that my current number isn’t associated with my phone and will expire from iMessage/FaceTime in a few days. I’ve restarted my phone, turned iMessage and FaceTime on and off, and tried to change the number manually. How do I fix the glitch? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Swapping number in a new sim I’ve got a new SIM card in my phone and had a text message saying my old number has been transferred. It will let me ring people with my old number (so it has transferred) but when I FaceTime people it’s coming up with a different number and people can’t contact me with my new number unless they ring me it does not work with FT or iMessage

iPhone - cannot edit / save new number in 'My Number' Last week I moved mobile network provider and transferred my old number via a PAC code etc. The phone works when calls made to the transferred number. The iPhone recognises the new network number and has put it in 'My Number' but, when I edit this number to the old transferred number, I can edit the number but it will not save the edit. So I am stuck with the new network number, which impacts iMessage. I have iMessage turned off and FaceTime turned off. iMessage says my transferred number is not registered. Any help would be appreciated. PS - my wife changed to the same mobile network at the same time, same iPhone model(7) and I edited her 'My Number' and iMessage, with no issues.
