HT1689 I have a positive account balance why is my credit card charged?

I have a positive account balance by the use of gift cards from friends. So, why is my credit card charged instead of deducting the amount from my balalce? Can I choose to debit my account balance instead of charging on the card?

Hi,
Apologize for the inconvenience !
1$ charge is a test to ensure the authorization of credit card. This amount is returned to customer's account.
Credit card information is not stored anywhere with us. We just have the last four digits of the credit card with us. Rest of the information is deleted from the system after use and instead a token is used which is secure and is not customer's credit card number.
Please feel free to write back if you still have any questions.
Thanks,
Anjali

Unless you can find an item in the store that costs the same as your balance then you will need to contact iTunes Support and ask them if they can remove the balance : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

HT204053 Why was my credit card charged I didn't buy anything

Why was my credit card charged I didn't buy anything

These are user-to-user forums, we won't know.
You've checked the purchase history on your account (Store > View My Account, Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11, menu option on your computer's iTunes), and have you made any in-app purchases or have any auto-renewing subscriptions ? If not and you haven't added or changed your credit card details (when you do then a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the details are correct and valid, which should disappear within a few days) then you can contact iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

Can I have multiple iTunes accounts all billed from one credit card?

Hi everyone.
I work for a business that needs to use iTunes from a number of different locations.
Can I set up a different account for each location, each paid for from a single credit card?
Thanks in advance.
Doctor Stu.

Of course. There is a limit to how many new accounts that you can open up with the same card in ONE MONTH and that is five.

Account has been hacked and credit card charged (the long awaited sequel!)

So I started contacting Skype on Twitter and they very nicely asked me if I had offered up my information to a 'Recover your account' form. Which I hadn't, actually as I wasn't able to find it anywhere on this website. I acknowledge I may not notice everything, but I still can't actually find it anywhere, except through the link I was given on Twitter. Anyway, the best ones are usually not that easy to find, so I gathered it'd be fun. Here's the link to that: https://support.skype.com/en/account-recovery?cm_mmc=SMTW_7001B1-Skype%20-%20Support&linkId=15618030 Anyway, I gave my information to the form and (finally) I got an email response from Skype (don't get too excited, it was an automated email) saying that they love the information I've given and would like to date it on a regular basis, but please could I just go and fill in another form? That's this form: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/skype?language=en&locale=en-us&oaspworkflow=start_1.0.0.0&needslogin=false&wfname=skype&supportoption=email&SupportTopic_L1=32090809&SupportTopic_L2=32090818&ccsid=****************24 Which I've already filled in twice and to be honest, my information is a little bit tired of it as it never returns any calls. But after all, my information is a bit lonely, so I thought I'd try again because Skype liked the information so much the first time. Perhaps my information would get a bit of action if I filled it in again? I'm nice to my information like that. But now Skype doesn't want my information and tells me that 'Sorry, the page you requested is not available.' I think that's a bit uncool, actually because I got my information all dressed up and excited to have a great time with Skype but now my information is sitting alone and abandoned in a corner, all sad and lonely while Skype is out having fun with the money taken from my credit card, probably spending it with the information given by the guy who hacked my account. That's just not very nice and while filling my information into the form, I realised that the guy who hacked my account would be able to give Skype nearly all of that information too, as he has access to my account while I do not. Frankly, it's tough being my information, because it seems anyone can please Skype just as well as it can and after about seven years together, you'd think Skype would be a little nicer about it.

Well, well, well! It seems Skype may after all have a little bit of a soft spot for my information! I thought it was a bit sad to see it sitting there in the corner with nowhere to go, so decided to have one more go at the second of the forms mentioned above, so Information and I popped over to that page and seriously, my information was all over it, being so attentive to Skype's needs, you wouldn't believe it. I was really proud of Information there, humming a little 'Nobody dooooes is betterrrrr' to myself. So Information was accepted in and Skype was all 'ooo' and 'ahh' about it, and then told Information to hop along now and that Skype will get back to us in another 72 hours, but that before that, Skype would send a sneaky (perhaps even flirty!) little email that will be waiting for us in the inbox when we check. So on the plus side, now we have another Support Request Number (3 times a charm! ), but sadly no cheaky (perhaps even flirty!) email in the inbox. I can't help feeling that there's a chance that Skype is simply stringing Information along for Skype's own ends and needs and perhaps Skype doesn't like Information quite as well as Skype says? Frankly, I think Skype has sent its sneaky (perhaps even flirty!) email to the guy who hacked my account instead of sending it to Information and me. I think Skype may be a bit loose.

HT3702 Why was my credit card charged

I added my credit card for verification to reset my password, and has noticed it being charged 3times, is there a reason why?

Each time you add or change the credit card details on your account then you will recieve a temporary store holding charge to check that the card details are valid and that the card is active, as described on the page that you posted from - it should disappear from your card within a few days (though it varies by card company, and the weekend may extend it by a day or two)

HT201359 Credit card charged when using credit balance?

If I had a credit balance on my itunes account, then why did my credit card get charged?

Assuming you were not buying a gift for someone else - gifts cannot be purchased using a credit balance - another user in the forums posted this as the reply from the iTunes Store when this issue was brought up. Perhaps it will help you. Regards.
I'm sorry you weren't able to make a purchase using your store credit. To purchase items on the iTunes Store with your store credit, your account information in your user profile needs to be corrected. I'll walk you through this process to get you back up and running in no time.
1) Visit the My Apple ID website at: http://appleid.apple.com
2) If the site is not displayed in your preferred language, click the Change Language link in the upper-right corner, type the name of your language in the field that appears, then click the Save button.
3) Click the "Manage your account" link.
4) Type your iTunes Store account name (which is your Apple ID) in the Apple ID field, type your password in the password field, then click the Sign In button.
5) Click "Addresses" in the column on the left. If you have multiple shipping addresses, remove any out-of-date or duplicate addresses by clicking Delete. Also, make sure the state or province field is filled out correctly for each address. To edit an address, click Edit. Edit all of your shipping addresses and make sure the appropriate state is selected in the State drop-down menus.
6) Now click "Phone Numbers" on the left. The area codes should be in the area code fields and the phone numbers should be in the phone number fields. If an area code is missing, or if it is in a phone number field, your account information may not save properly.
7) Make any other necessary corrections, then click the Save Changes button.
8) Click Log out in the upper-right corner. When you make your next purchase on the iTunes Store, you will be asked to review your billing information. At this point, you can change your information or simply click Done at the bottom of the screen to proceed. Once you click Done, you should be able to purchase on the iTunes Store using your store credit.

Why was my credit card used and not my gift card

why was my credit card charged instead of my gift card?

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, we won't know.
Have you checked the purchased history on your account ? If you log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option, you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it. Click on that and you should then see a list of your purchases.
Or haave you added or changed your credit card details on your iTunes account ? If you have then each time that you do so a small temporary store holding charge may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.

I can no longer see the account balance on my iTunes gift card. Why?

Where can I find the account balance from my iTunes gift card, on my macbook pro, in the iTunes store?

Thank you responding. (you're the only response I received). I did, and was doing, as you suggested. Before the latest iTunes update, I was able to see my account balance (a whopping $9.98), but can no longer see the amount. I've tried logging out and back into iTunes to no avail. Same goes on my iPhone and iPod, and iPad. The system keeps asking for credit card info, but I'm hesitant to do that. (That's why we purchase iTunes gift cards, isn't it ?) !
Anyway, Thank you for your assistance. Next stop is the local Apple Store and see what the Genus bar can do. !!
