iPhone is locked to deleted Apple ID

Hello, I recently deleted one of my apple ID that is currently on one my iPhone. Now my iPhone is asking the password of my deleted apple ID to be able to sign-out from iPhone. Since the apple ID is not valid anymore (because it is deleted now), i cant enter the password because it doesn't exists anymore although I know the password of the deleted apple ID. I can't erase or delete my iPhone because it always asks the password of the deleted apple ID. How can I remove this deleted apple ID from my iPhone? Regards.

LucyWilson,

Ouch. ☹️

For information relating to 'How to delete your Apple ID account', click here --> How to delete your Apple ID account - Apple Support

"Make sure that you sign out of all your devices to avoid issues with apps that use your Apple ID account or iCloud. After your account is deleted, you can't sign out of iCloud or turn off Find My iPhone Activation Lock on your devices. If you forget to sign out, you might not be able to use your device when your account is deleted."

Hopefully you can do this:

Apple can reset a device if a person can provide sufficient evidence of valid ownership. Try this online here -->

(Yes, apparently this does work in this situation too: How to remove previously deleted apple id… - Apple Community )
