That sounds like youre changing the phone number associated with the google account and not the GMB

Had a similar issue with a client's listing a while back. Google sometimes flags updates if they think there's suspicious activity. Could be due to inconsistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone) info across the web or someone reported the number as spam. Best bet is to ensure the number is consistent everywhere online, then reach out to GMB support to clarify. They're usually pretty good about sorting these things out if you can prove ownership and the legitimacy of the biz.

Have another user go to Maps and suggest an edit. That could get it back up there if it's a trusted user.
