It doesn't work in other countries.

The physical SIM card shows the phone is not allowed.


The iPhone has a country lock.

Sorry you didn't understand my question. The problem is this. This phone is made specifically for Kazakhstan. It doesn't work in other countries. The SIM card does not see. In the settings section, "it says sim card without restrictions ". The physical SIM card shows the phone is not allowed. I repeat once again, I am in England now.
