If you haven't succeeded at changing your date of birth by following the steps in Apple's support document Update the birth date associated with your Apple ID then "they" might have a point.


The steps for an iPhone (which you seem to have) are

On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

  1. Go to Settings > [your name].
  2. Tap Name, Phone Numbers, Email. You might need to enter your Apple ID password.
  3. Tap Change Birthday or Birthday. 
  4. Update your birth date, then tap Done. If you're changing a birth date for a child, learn what to do


Ultimately, contact Apple Support
