Hi everyone
I have searched all over the net to find an answer for this but unfortunately there is no clear answer so i wa wondering who would be able to help me.
I have an iphone 5 which was on ios 6.1.2. I decided to recenly update it to ios 9.2. I have now been automatically logged in to my icloud account which does not exist due to my e-mail address being hacked a year ago. I wish to delete this account from the phone but I have found out that I am not able to. Since the account does not exist, my password doesn't work therefore I cannot delete it. On another thread someone suggested i log into my current account on appleid.apple.com and change my primary e-mail address so i could then delete the account. This cannot happen as in order to change the primary e-mail address, apple sends a verification code to the new e-mail address you input. Since the e-mail address no longer exists i cannot retrieve the verification code. Any other suggestions?
May i please add that Im not sure that going to apple would be an option as I no loger have proof that the phone is mine since i bought the phone unlocked and not on a specific package approximately 3 years ago. Plus i live in greece and there is not an apple store here. Thanks in advance!
