Cannot activate iphone 4s on iOS7

I have an old iphone 4s and I installed iOS7 on it. Whenever I try to activate it with my own AppleID account, I just get a failed error saying it couldnt activate my iPhone. no matter how many times I do it i get the same error. My Apple ID is fine, i know because i even used it to log into my icloud.com/find and i was able to successfully locate my ipad, mac, iphone5 and iphone4s.


So I dont know what the issue is.

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9), Late 2012

The message is:

Activation Lock

"This iPhone is currently linked to an Apple ID (l*****@c*****.it). Sign in with the Apple ID that was used to set up this iPhone"


I know the password for that Apple ID, but it does not work, also I have removed the phone from the ones I had in my "Find my iPhone" application, restarted etc, still not working.


It is ridiculous apple won't help with this.
