Hey,can anyone assist me in verifying my phone number for iMessage and FaceTime? My phone number won’t verify but both my Apple ID and iCloud emails have been added to the “you can be reached at” tab?
if anyone has knowledge of this problem please let me know
Just a little side note,I am with cello and I called them a few minutes stating my problem and they said they can’t help with such issues...so I’m stuck at this point

- Make sure that you're using thelatest software for your MacoriOS device.
- Make sure that you correctly followed the iPhone steps toset up your phone number. You should be using the same Apple ID on all of your devices.
- In the “You can be reached” section of Messages and FaceTime settings, make sure that there are checkmarks beside your phone number and Apple ID:
If your phone number is unchecked and you can't select it, or you have some other issue, follow these steps:
On your Mac:
- In Messages, choose Messages > Preferences, then click Accounts and select your iMessage account.Click Sign Out.

On your iPhone, iPad, and iPod:
- Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
