I still use Macs and iPads- - but no longer use an iPhone. I deleted it
from my list of devices in my Apple ID after first turning off iMessage
and Face Time on it. I also no longer use the phone number from that iPhone,
But I don't see a way to delete that phone number from "Reachable At" on
my Apple ID page. Suggestions?

Ever notice the direct correlation between the weakness of an argument
and the shrillness of its proponents?

More importantly, two local Hooters waitresses and a 2015 Dallas Cowboys
Cheerleader I met on a plane flight have my old number and may be trying
unsuccessfully to reach me at it. Would you want in on your conscience
that girls like that are pining away?

because it sends the notification code to that number.
