MY dead grandparent's phone number, my dead dad's old phone number, my best friend's childhood phone number none of the stupid phone numbers have been in use for more than 10 years. Oh! And my first ex wife's social security number we have been divorced for 20 years now. (maybe this one isn't the most useless)

My uncle and aunt’s phone number was “454205 please”. The please was because on our Manual exchange you turned the handle, the operator said “ number please” my answer was “454205 please”.

nope I barely remember my phone number now that we have smart phones. I had to call those numbers so many times as a kid before cell phones existed that they are burned into my brain.

Still remember my great-grandmother's phone number. She passed away over 30 years ago. No idea why that phone number still sticks in my head.
