My new phone came unexpectedly today as it was not meant to be delivered until next monday. I wasn't going to buy a sim card or a case until the weekend since there was apparently no rush but when I try to activate my phone during the setup I get a message saying 'Activation Failed' and 'Please disconnect and insert a SIM card in the iPhone'?
Now I would like to make it clear that I pre ordered this phone from the Apple website UNLOCKED and thus one would assume there would be no need for a sim card straight away; unlike a contract phone.
Can I sort this out right here right now because it's too late to go to the carrier shop to get a Nano-SIM?
Added (1). Great… Now I'm lumbered with a £600 lump of metal.
