my number


I recently transferred to id, porting my old number across. The eSIM is activated and the ported number is working for everything. However, the number shown as My Number in Settings-Mobile Service is the one assigned by id and I am unable to change it manually. I have checked that the correct number (ie my old one) is registered with FaceTime, iMessage etc. 

is this a problem and can I change the number shown under My Number?
