Apple Id decoupled from iPad by support due to activation lock

My apple id was destroyed by Apple that was linked to an iPad (after I proved that I bought that device using the bill) so that activation lock on that specific device has disappeared after a restore. My question is what will happen if I restore a different (iPhone) device that is linked to the already destroyed apple id? Will I get the activation lock again for the iPhone too? Has anyone experience with this issue?

Thanks for your help,

iPhone 7

If the phone is linked to the deleted ID, if you restore/reset the phone you will have an Activation Lock requiring the deleted ID.

If by destroyed ID you mean deleted, if you restore a backup made using the deleted ID, you won't be able to load it, and the phone will likely have an Activation lock.
