    Hi ​@Claireslade22.

     

    Thank you for your post, please try the following steps:

     

    Go to Settings > Messages and turn off iMessage.

    Go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off FaceTime.

    Restart your iPhone.

    Turn iMessage and FaceTime back on.

     

    This should resolve the issue and allow your old number to be added successfully.
