If you are trying to set up the phone as new device and a different Apple ID has been used to set up the phone before that, the Activation Lock might still be active. Open this page on your computer and you can check its Activation Lock status at icloud.com/activationlock from a Mac or PC.


If the phone is still locked to another Apple ID, contact the insurance company to remove the Activation Lock:


If you no longer have the device, follow the instructions to remove a device you no longer have. For more information, see the Apple Support article What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
