It may be helpful to explain exactly what you mean by 'incorrect number'.

 

Have you changed provider/number recently?

Re: Incorrect number when using rcs text

I used my Pac code to transfer my number to sky and 3 days later, when I text, the receiver sees the sky number that should have been replaced with my transferred number from O2

It's quite common on services that don't actually use the phone number but are linked to it - happens on FaceTime/iMessage too.

 

I think the best solution would be via Google:

If your RCS (Rich Communication Services) chat is stuck on an incorrect, old, or temporary assigned number (often happening after a SIM change or number port), you can fix it by unregistering your phone number from Google's chat server and re-verifying your correct mobile number.

 

It's not a Sky Mobile issue as such...

I have tried that and it keeps pulling the wrong number back in. And sky were about as helpful as a chocolate teapot on the phone yesterday. Beginning to wish I'd just stayed with o2 for the extra 10 quid a month
