Rate On App Store (In-App) Method - Error : "Your request produced an error. [newNullLineResponse]". Re New App To Be Submitted

I'm about to submit my new app to the App Store. I found this thread that seems to be the most current in terms of the correct syntax to use re the method required to execute a "Rate This App" process : How can I add a link for a rate button with swift? (March, 2015)

I have a button in my app that allows the user to leave a review on the App Store - within my app. Not via external browser.

My code as follows:

@IBAction func RateUs(sender: AnyObject) {
  UIApplication.sharedApplication().openURL(NSURL(string : "itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewContentsUserReviews?id=\(123456789)&onlyLatestVersion=true&pageNumber=0&sortOrdering=1)")!);
}

My app id I have listed as a numeric only format - listed above as 123456789 for example purposes.

I run the build on my iPhone as simulator. No errors and it builds 100% OK.

When I press execute the IBAction (i.e. press button) to leave a review, the App Store window appears, starts to load and I get this error on a blank screen:

"Your request produced an error.
[newNullLineResponse]"

Three (3) questions:

  1. Is my above code up-to-date and correct?
  2. Is this error standard as I my app is not yet on the App Store? and
  3. My app is available Worldwide, does the method I use above cater for all App Stores by region?

I am presuming this error is expected.

I would just like to confirm 1,2 and 3 above.

Thank you in advance for any assistance.

I just had this issue today. Tried other ways and came up with this:

UIApplication.sharedApplication().openURL(NSURL(string : "itms-apps://itunes.apple.com/app/id1085881746")!);

My app is not released yet so it just gives me a screen in app store saying this app is not yet available in this country. This works fine it just cant open the review tab programmatically.
