Who are? I use my credit card at multiple services. Is the bank going to call around to services that I have paid for previously and tell them my new credit card details? I hope not
Of course, YMMV, this is just what my bank does.
Yes. Anyplace that bills you regularly on the old number will automatically get the new number.

It depends on how you define new. A new biller, then correct. But if it's a biller that you have an existing relationship with, i.e. they bill you every month, then they do send them the new numbers (and/or allow them to use the old number).
I can't say if this is a global policy of all issuers, but I can say that I've experienced it. I've also seen it in the fine print when I signed up for repeated billing.
Here's an older Braintree blog post about it: https://www.braintreepayments.com/blog/automatic-update-of-c...
