Credit Card Processing Unavailable....for three days

Hi,
For three days now I've been unable to purchase anything from the iTunes store. The store asks me to update my cc information but each I do, I receive the message that "credit card processing is unavailable now." Anyone else experiencing this? Any suggestions?

  • Credit card processing unavailable???

    Hi,
    I am trying to purchase Logic X on the app store using my Paypal account (which is set up properly). But I keep getting an error which is then followed by an alert saying that 'credit card processing is unavailable at this time...please try again later'.
    How do I resolve this issue? I live in the U.S. and it's 3 am. I can't call anyone can I?
    Thanks.

    I'm having the same problems. It started a couple of days ago when I was unable to download songs from my shopping cart. When I pressed the 'Buy Now' button, I received a 502 error. iTunes did not download my music so I tried again...then again...and again. Still nothing! I was concerned but figured there was a temporary problem. Later, I checked my email and I was astonished to find several PayPal receipts for my purchases at the iTunes store!! What a mess! Apparently when I pressed the 'Buy Now' button I was actually purchasing the songs even though I was never able to download them! I contacted support and they kindly refunded everything (which totalled over $50) without an explanation as to what happened or what an error 502 was! Tonight I tried again (thinking it was just a fluke) and received the 'credit card orders cannot be processed now...' error. Not sure what's going on. I never had this problem before. I hope they correct this soon.

  • TS1424 100 error? Credit Card Processing down for 4 hours

    Any Clue?
    Attempting to buy Numbers and Keynote.
    Getting a 100 error followed by cc processing down. It has been 4 hours ...

    I have the same problem, but being as you have had your account for 5 days by the time of this writing, I had mine for about a year. Recently, the security code showed up blank for the credit card I was using, and even when I used the correct security code, iTunes figured that it wasn't valid.
    Thankfully, (go shopsafe!) it was easy to get another credit card for a dollar or two (I just want to update my free software for free...), yet this didn't work, for it again said that the security code was invalid.
    Then, after a few tries, it said "Credit card processing is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
    Judging by other Apple forums, when this sort of thing happens, it's a problem on Apple's side, rather than my computer.
    I came to this conclusion when I came to a forum that had a bunch of different people complaining that they can't buy music on iTunes. However, that forum was dated in 2008.
    If someone finds contradictory information, feel free to reply to my post and tell me how I, too, could fix this.
    And in case it matters, I am using a MacBook Air with OS X 10.6.8 and have iTunes 10.4.

  • Credit Card Processing unavailable right now?!

    I keep getting an error message from the App Store, "Credit Card Processing temporarily unavailable right now" or something close. I know I have money on my MC and am simply trying to make in app purchase.
    Anyone else getting this message??

  • HT3702 I am able to purchase music, but I cannot purchase movies, credit card processing unavailable.  On computer and Apple TV.

    Tried to purchase movies on computer and apple tv, same issue.

    The security code is the 3 or 4 digit code outside of the actual card number (and NOT the same as your PIN). It is usually located on the front of AMEX cards and on the back of Visa and MC. You typically wouldn't need that for purchases in a physical store. Log into your AppleID, modify the payment method  and set it with the proper code.

  • "Credit Card Processing Is Temporarily Unavailable. Please Try Again Later".

    Hi guys.
    I have been browsing for hours no with no avail to this problem I have been having.
    I am trying to create a new account to use with the iTunes store - an account in my country, rather than using my US account to buy stuff from there.
    My country (Bolivia) is new to the iTunes store, and as soon as I heard the store became available yesterday, I have been trying to register a new account. But everytime I get to the payment page and submit the info, I get the error "Credit Card Processing Is Temporarily Unavailable. Please Try Again Later".
    Again, I have googled for this for hours with no avails. Common possible solutions were:
    A lot of people mistyped the security code. But I have checked mine a thousand times, I'm completely certain I am getting it right, but I keep getting that message.
    Some people mistyped the actual CC number. Another piece of info I retyped a couple of times so I'm sure I'm getting it right.
    What are the chances the system is actually unavailable? A lot of people solved this problem and the issue wasn't related to a system being down at all. Could it be the fact my country is new to the iTunes store?
    It's been like 6 hours since I tried to make the new account. That doesn't fit my definition of "Temporarily". I guess I will wait a day or two and see what happens, but in the meantime I would like to hear possible problems and/or solutions.
    Oh, I almost forgot. If it matters, I am using an iTunes Beta on my MacBook Pro.

  • Credit card processing temporarily unavailable?

    I keep trying to buy some music under my account. my card expired so I need to sign up a new one. when I do it says credit card processing temporarily unavailable and to try again later. its been like this for a few days now. is there something wrong with my settings?

    This message can be related to the address format you use or your bank's verifing system. When you put your credit card information into your iTunes Store account, this information is sent to your bank for verification. If the billing address you use does not match the bank's records exactly, and/or is not in standard USPS format, then this could result in the message you are seeing.
    I would ensure that your bank's records are correct and if you still experience the error, just use another credit card or an iTunes Store GIft Card.
    Hope that helps!

  • Credit card processing is temp. unavailable.

    Hey.
    I just got a new itouch today, and tried downloading an app. it asked me to fill in my account info, including my payment method. First it said the security code was wrong, which it wasnt, then, it started telling me "Credit card processing is temporarily unavailable."
    I just read that this has lasted a few days for some people. What can i di?

    wanted to bump this.
    i get the same message. started initially when it said my zip code didn't match my area or something like that, and told me that "verification [is] required" before i can make purchases and that i had to sign in to verify my payment info.
    which is what i did. same cc# i've been using the last few years. nothing changed. but i go thru the process of "verifying" by making sure all the info is correct and hit submit and then i get this message: "Credit card processing temporarily unavailable, try again later" or something similar. i've been getting that message for 4 days!!! so frustrating.
    i tried deleting cookies, rebooting, doing it from my iphone, doing it from my desktop (which is the only authorized computer), updated itunes, updated the iOS... no dice, no nuthin. searched thru these forums and didn't find a solution, just a couple of threads like this one with no answers.

  • Trying to subscribe to iTunes Cloud, getting message "credit card processing is temporarily unavailable".

    I've tried to subscribe to iTunes Cloud for a couple of days now but receiving the message "credit card processing is temporarily unavailable".  Tried to contact support but they need an apple serial number, I'm accessing iTunes from my HP laptop so doesn't recognize the serial number.  How do I get Apple to sell me this subscription?

    Judging by your nickname, are you located in county of credit card origin?

  • Credit Card processing is temprorarily unavailable?

    I have been getting this message since 12/30 around noon, and just figured there was a problem with the service. I logged on this morning expecting it to be resolved, but I am still getting the same error when I try to put in my credit card information. I just created a new account and its really frustrating to not be able to dl anything for my new ipod.

    I managed to get it to work this morning. I went back through and used the same cards I had tried before. I still could not get it to work with my debit card, but it went through with my credit card. Both cards are issued by the same bank, so I am not sure what the reason was. Either way its working now.
    for refererence,
    the error was
    "Credit Card processing is temprorarily unavailable"
    If it was something with the card information it would have been nice to know, but I really don't think it was because I have used the debit card at various online retailers throughout the holiday season.

  • TS1424 Credit card processing is temporarily unavailable. You may continue to browse the store. Please try to make your purchase later.

    Credit card processing is temporarily unavailable. You may continue to browse the store. Please try to make your purchase later. Any One else having this Issue ?

    I was having this exact issue when I was set up to use PayPal as my payment method. I fixed it by -
    1. going to my iTunes account and selecting None as my method of payment, then clicking Done
    2. confirming this on my account page - which then said Add (or Set up, I can't remember) a Credit Card
    3. on the Add a credit card page, I again set up the exact same PayPal account I had before.
    4. I was then taken to the PayPal website to confirm that I wanted to use my PayPal account for iTunes purchases, and finally
    5. I was taken back to my account page in iTunes, which looked exactly the same as before BUT...
    The next time I tried it, my purchase went straight through! (And this was less than 5 minutes after I'd had the "Credit Card processing is temporarily unavailable" message.)
    YMMV, but I guess a similar revalidation process would work for credit cards too.
