Do it one by one, make a list of all the documents and bank accounts or any other necessary things which are attached with your mobile no.

I think two important documents are Aadhaar and PAN after that you can go with other documents and bank.

Yes, doing it one by one would be the best way! @Dealcharmer, why are doing it by the way?

Going forward we all need to make it a point to maintain a spreadsheet listing mobile numbers and email IDs linked to various accounts. It is also important to split them up by having two numbers and email IDs.

You haven't mentioned the reason why are you doing this?

What’s your reason? 

I also did it but changed only in my bank accounts and all shopping sites. My reason was somehow UPI was blocked in my old number as I’ve asked phonepe to permanently delete my account and they blocked my number for UPI registration. 

It’s not PIA, just grab some beers and write down all accounts where you want to change. Till the time beer will be over, you will change your decision after checking the list.

The reason for changing the number -

1) too many unwanted people who keep calling and messaging me for their own motives waste my time .tried blocking them then they call me from different number and put me in guilt trip do the emotional atyachar ( this number is with me since college time )


2 ) too many spam calls and messages using Truecaller and took do not disturb from the operator but it is all in vain


3) wanna start from scratch and wanna give my number only to people i meet regularly or they are a real part of my life . ( In the past shared my number with too many people I met online fb,insta and stuff )


4) Raita zyada faila hua hai usse samet na chahta hoon aur simple rakhna chahta hoon

You all 4 reasons are very much valid and more than enough to change the number. I agree with you, it will be hectic for now while changing but it will eventually lead to better things so go ahead and change it. Start with aadhar/pan then bank, later the most used apps like Amazon, Flipkart. For Later stuff, you might no need to change since then you can take benefits of new user account too on apps like Swiggy & Zomato.

Just keep the number don't change it on id cards it will be a hassle just change the number of bank accounts,cc and other important sites that don't sell ur number it will be easier. After that switch off your old number and use only to receive otp from aadhar and other id cards

Take a new number and use that as primary number. Use the old no in an old phone only for banking/adhaar OTP purposes and UPI. No need to answer any call that comes on it.

Facing Same issue on my oldest number which I have been Using since Reliance GSM launched. I avoid entering my number on sites like paisabazaar.
Even then the spammers find one way or another.
1. "Sir aap lucky winner hai aur aapko hamari company ki taraf se chuna gaya hai."
2. whatsapp pe pakistani kbc wale.
3. Recently I applied for kotak credit card and since then I have started getting spam calls from hdfc bank credit card guys every 2nd day. Although I already have an HDFC card.

4. Loan lelo sir.


I religiously report all these spam callers to TRAI DND app. Usage limit is applied in most of these numbers on first report. While repeated offenders are blacklisted and blocked.  IMG20221008172623
