This wikiHow teaches you how to delete a phone number you no longer use from your iPhone. If you've already added your new phone number to your iPhone, you may be able to delete the old phone number by making a quick change in your settings. However, if your old phone number was connected to FaceTime and iMessage on the same iPhone, you'll need to log out of your Apple ID in both locations to remove the old number.

If you've forgotten both your Apple ID login and the password, the best bet is to go to iForgot online, or take the device to an Apple store where they can help you.
