Hi,
I need to buy an iPhone 6s from Apple online in UAE and need to know if facetime would work if I moved to another country which don't have face time restriction as UAE?
"Another point of view" ,,, Does Apple put any HW restriction preventing iPhone bought from them in UAE (as example) from playing facetime even in another country like UK?
iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.4
I just finished a call with Apple Support Rep. and guess what!! he said that if I bought the iPhone from UAE and then moved to another country, the Facetime app might be installed or might be not... 😕
I asked him if this is a HW restriction for iphones sold in UAE? he said yes and then he said that he's not 100% sure.
I told him so the Model number should be different between UAE and any other country, he said no it's the same .. 😠
I said, so this is a SW restriction and I can restore my iPhone when I move to any other country to get the Facetime work, he said maybe or maybe not!!!!!
I'm really disappointed how come apple guys don't have a 100% answer to such a question!!
Facetime restriction .. HW or SW or just SIM Network provider restriction?
