sign in details

I am over the constant spam I receive to my account (mainly from accounts claiming to be temu) and I would like to delete this account but I would also like to add a new fresh email I have created strictly for use on the xbox launcher and any xbox consoles I might own. Now I cannot do so as I have recently changed my contact number on this account and now have to wait until 8/12/23 before I can do so which is ridiculous. I also cannot cancel the request to change my sign in details because I no longer use the phone number I have assigned to this account and haven't had said number in over 5 years. Is there anyway I can get help with this situation?

I appreciate your help man but it will not let me change any of that because I changed my phone number. I cannot verify my account because the number I used for this account is the number I had over a decade ago that I no longer use. I also cannot request to cancel the change of phone number as it is asking for the last 4 digits of my old phone number so it can send a verification code to that number. I do not want to have to wait 3 weeks before it lets me do what I want to do in the way you have mentioned.
