I see, in that case try signing gout of iMessage and FaceTime and signing back in.


  1. Go to Settings > Messages and turn off iMessage.
  2. Go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off FaceTime.
  3. Restart your device:

4. Turn iMessage and FaceTime back on.

Thank you. It worked first time for iMessage but FaceTime still reported error, tried your solution again but FaceTime still didn’t work, removed phone number from iMessage and FaceTime from signed out of my Apple ID, removed sim and re inserted, restarted phone, signed back in and behold no more error message. What a lot of kerfuffle!😂 Thanks for your help, without it I wouldn’t have made any headway.
