Updating credit card caused duplicate purchase.

Your billing is a scam. I have tried to update the date of my credit card twice and the result is that I have been charged $20. My balance is now $34. At my age I will need to live another 50 years to use that up and I am furious that there is not good way to get a refund without jumping thru hoops in a circle to no avail.
What are your going to do about it?

  • HT201209 Want to set up my children's IPad's with their own Apple ID.  Trying to set up yahoo accounts and it will not allow me to do this.  I wan them only to be able to purchase from rdeemed gift cards but it keeps asking me to update credit card info

    Want to create Apple ID for both my children's IPad's.  Tried creating new email account for my son and it will not let me.  I want them to be only able to purchase from redeemed gift cards and everytime it asks me to update credit card info on their Ipad.

    Look, I understand I still need a card attached to the account. The problem is, it won't accept my card because I only have 87 cents in my bank account right now.
    If I had known there would be so much trouble with the iTunes card, I would have just put the cash in my bank account in the morning instead of buying an iTunes card (I didn't expect the banks to be open on Thanksgiving of course).
    Apple will only accept cards that have a balance. The balance is so small in my account that it won't accept it as a valid card.
    I'm going to have to contact Apple anyway to reset the security questions. That's obvious. Your answers were not exactly helpful. You didn't tell me anything I don't already know, but thanks for trying to be helpful.

  • TS3297 The balance in my account is $17 and change. The cost of the CD I was purchasing is $16.99. Why would a request be made for updated credit card information?

    I was attempting to purchase a music CD for $16.99 with an account balance of $17. and change. Why did iTunes Store request updated credit card information?

    Because you do not have enough to pay for the cd and the tax

  • Why must I give an updated Credit card for an update on an app I already purchased? I have no outstanding balance.

    Why must I gave an updated Credit card for an update on an app I already paid for? Are they trying to charge me again? I have no balance and I am not purchasing any new apps.

    They aren't charging you twice. They just want you to verify your security code and expiration of your credit card. Better to make sure you personal info is correct then have a stranger try using your account.
    From the iTunes menu bar click Store / View My Account then click: Edit Payment Information.
    Make sure all the data is available then click Done.

    For a standard iTunes account you need a valid payment method even for free apps and app updates.
    What is making it think that you own money for an app upgrade?

  • Unable to change Country Region until credit used, but unable to update credit card as no longer valid

    Hi,
    Please help.
    Im trying to change my app store from Autralia to New Zealand.  It is telling me i need to spend the credit on my itunes account before i can make this change.  So i went to make a purchase, however my Credit Card details need updating, and i no longer have my australian credit card.  I tried inputting NZ credit card details, but this was not allowed.
    How do i get around this? If i dont have a valid Australian Credit Card to make purchases using my available itunes credit, to then eventually change regions in app store?
    Cheers

    You can only use a credit card issued by a Australian bank on an Australian account. Try contacting iTunes Support and ask them if they can remove the balance so that you can change countries : 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

  • HT5622 I think my granddaughter bought a $3.99 app after I put the password in for a free app.  How can I find out what she purchased?  Can I get credit for it?  I just got an email from my credit card confirming the purchase.

    I think my granddaughter bought a $3.99 app after I put the password in for a free app.  I just got an email from my credit card confirming the purchase.  How can I find out what she purchased?  Can I get credit for it? 

    The password is good for 15 minutes to make purchases. You should receive a receipt in 24 to 48 hours for the purchases. There is a link to Report an issue. You could use that to start a conversation with iTunes Support about a refund.
    Apple considers all sales final. But has been known to offer a one time refund. So the question is, do you want to use your one time refund on this purchase or one more expensive in the future?

  • Can Not Update Credit Card Info

    Skype, get with it!  There have been several threads pointing out there is no way to update credit card expiration date.  We keep getting these warning emails that account (along with accumulated credit) is about to expire due to expired credit card info.  But having chased every blind alley in "My Account" and elsewhere, there is absoluetly no way to do this.  The so called "solutions" from prior forum posts refer to an interface that does not exist - at least for some users.  Specifically, it describes a path that starts with click "subscriptions" but this option does not always exist.
    Very unhappy with web services that waste time due to lousy coordination within the organization that does not keep instructions in synch with actual product evolution.
    Fix this, please!

    Hello,
    I have exactly the same experience as the Unhappy user here quoted.
    Cannot update my current card.
    Cannot delete my expired card.
    Was compelled to add another bankcard just to keep the account current.
    Support pages reference menus which do not appear under any menu sequence.

  • Help on how to update credit card?

    My credit card  expiry needs updating. After three days of frustrating searches, I finally got my daughter, in another state, to log me on, but then all info in the web still doesn't tell me how to update. The web is bloody useless when seeking a simple answer. Several people report the same sort of problems. Can anyone please advise ?

    In iOS 7, how to update credit card details.. There is tap available to change as suggested in other discussion

    Each time that you add or change your card details then a small temporary store holding charge (i.e. $1) 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.
