Different Mobile Number under "Preference" Tab

When i get to end to transmit my return the the email address is correct but the mobile number is not and i cant see anywhere to update it. I can only see it under the "Preference Tab" but no option to update it. Not to be confused with the personal info tab where that number shows correct but not at the end when i want to transmit my tax return for 2023.

You aren’t understanding. The phone number on the screens you mention is correct. It it not correct on the ‘preferences’ tab only.  there is not a way to update the phone on the preferences screen. It is correct under all other areas.  I have tried re-saving following your directions however it still never updates the contact preferences screen.
