#42875 — Unable to activate my brand new FaceTime in its Mac app?

Hello.

I am having problems activating my brand new FaceTime in two different old 
Apple ID accounts with an old, updated Mac OS X El Capitan v10.11.6 
machine's admin account. They both get stuck for a very long time to 
activate. They doesn't even time out as well.

What's wrong?

stop. That's the first certainty." Eh? ..." --H.G. Wells' The War of the

I retried, but now it says "An error occurred during activation. Try 
again." as shown in https://i.imgur.com/eHEMsir.png screen shot/capture 
on multiple Mac OS (EL Capitan v10.11.6 and Sierra v10.12.6) machines. 
What's up? :(

Probably PEBKAC, but the simple solution is to call Apple and let them
tell you what's wrong.
