  • Good evening, I have an iPhone 7+ bought used by a guy about a year ago with a regular invoice (which seems to be bogus) and bound by a contract with Vodafone ... since yesterday it does not go online with the words "no service" after several tests and vicissitudes tonight we came to the conclusion that the phone's imi is blocked by the Vodafone manager which unfortunately is the same as the sim I've always used ... tried with another Vodafone sim and it doesn't go as with mine, tried with another sim iliad and it works ... now I would like to understand if with the service offered I can use the phone again with my vodafone sim?
