Bought refurbished iPhone 6

It is now asking for passcode. I put my old one thinking it goes by sim and memory of my other phone, it’s not letting me in. How do I bypass this and get passed this?!!

You can try to restore it through iTunes sure.


But you may run into Activation Lock if BestBuy did not remove any Apple Id logged into icloud during their refurbishment process.


Which if they left an active passcode on it, was likely not a very thorough process.


If you do run into activation lock, you will have to return it toi BestBuy, as there's nothing to do then.
