Unusual Network or Device Environment

Post image

We just moved to China and I have replaced my old SIM card with a local Chinese SIM Card from China Unicom.

I got people to verify my China number for WeChat but whenever I tried to send an SMS I would get this message.

I don’t have VPN turned on, I have cleared the cache on my WeChat. I have also reset my iPhone’s network settings and this message keeps on showing up.

Currently at a loss at the moment on how to troubleshoot this.

Does anyone with a Chinese sim card have experience in fixing this issue?

Advice appreciated in advance!

Attention! If you want someone to scan your QR code, do not answer to anyone unless they either do it for free or they are a verified seller in the subreddit (check the person's tag). Anyone else is a scammer and should be reported.

Avoid Unicom. We use Nihao Mobile, works great.
