Hi all,
I just got a secondhand iPhone 8, but the previous owner forgot to wipe it and although I have their passcode, I have not been able to erase the phone. I just keep getting the error "Verification Failed There was an error connecting to the Apple ID server." I don't currently have a sim in the phone. Can anyone help please?
Thanks in advance,
Shaunna
iPhone 8
Sorry, but without the Activation Lock disabled by the previous owner, the phone can't be used.

You're welcome 🙂
Good luck!
Thank you, I will get the previous owner to follow those steps and hopefully will be successful!
It worked, problem solved, thank you very much once again!
No problem, glad it worked 🙂
Can't erase iPhone 8, verification ID error
