Incorrect iPhone purchase date impacting Activation Lock Title: Incorrect Purchase Date Showing on Coverage Page – Need Help Hello everyone, I need some help regarding an unusual issue with my iPhone. I am trying to submit an Activation Lock removal request, and I already have the valid purchase invoice for the device. However, when I checked the AppleCare & Warranty coverage page, it showed an incorrect purchase date — it says the device was purchased in 2007, which is impossible for this model. Because of this incorrect date, I am worried that Apple might reject my Activation Lock request. I contacted Apple Support, and they confirmed that they can see the information on my proof of purchase, but the purchase date still appears incorrectly on the website. I would like to know: Why would the purchase date display incorrectly? Is there a way to correct the purchase date manually? Will this incorrect date affect my Activation Lock removal request? What steps should I take to make sure Apple updates the purchase date or processes the lock removal correctly? Any guidance or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Discrepancy in Warranty Expiry Date on iPhone activation Discrepancy in Warranty Expiry Date on iPhone activation I recently purchased a new iPhone 14 (on January 7) and proceeded to activate it. To verify its status, I navigated to Settings > General > About > Warranty and observed that the warranty expiry date is listed as June 29, 2024. However, upon checking the same on the Apple coverage website (https://checkcoverage.apple.com/) today (January 7, 2024), a different date is displayed (January 7, 2025). I would like to bring to your attention that I purchased the iPhone from a local store in my city, which assures customers that they are selling brand-new iPhones. Could you kindly investigate and clarify the reason for this date discrepancy? I want to ensure that the device has not been used or activated prior to my purchase

Usually the warranty starts when you buy your device, not when you set it up for the first time.
