I can’t transfer my old phone to my new phone

I tried different ways to transfer my data from my old iPhone to the new one and it says I can’t transfer that number to the new phone. Not sure if the issue sis with the phone or the carrier.

Did you also try to use your computer?

Insert the old SIM into the new iPhone before you start restoring from the backup.

Use the Finder or iTunes to transfer data from your previous iOS device to your new iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
