Can't seem to register my credit card..need some help

hi, i'm trying to register my MASTERCARD credit card on my itunes appstore but i keep getting the error message "your payment method was declined. please enter valid payment method information." i have checked my credit card information as well as the billing information numerous times already but i don't see anything wrong with the infos.
i did a searched around the forum and someone posted that there might be some problem with the bank or credit card company so i called up the credit card company to see if they have set any restrictions to my credit card and everything checks out ok and i'm still having the same problem. i even tried to register a new account but this time using my brother's credit card but same problem. by the way, i'm from the philippines and i did choose "philippines" as the country in the appstore.
any idea what's going on?

I doubt anything is wrong with your card, it's probably on Apple's end.

How can I make an account without credit card? Please help!

Please help me Guys, I can't make an account because it's asking for credit card. And there is no skip or none option. It's only Visa, Master Card or Amex. Please help me. Thank you!

Yes you can!
I had this same problem today. I have been battleing it for the past 5 hours, but it worked. You have to create a new account though.
What I did was go to iTunes and click Sign in, then made a new account.
But I didn't want to put in a Credit Card number, so what I did was
Open iTunes
Go to iTunes Store
Search a totaly free app. (I used Google Earth)
Click on the app from the list
Click the button under the icon that says "Free App"
Then it will ask you to sign in or make a new account, Select Make New Account
Follow All the steps on all the pages.
When you get to the page that you select your Credit Card, check "None"
Fill in the rest of the info and then click Complete
Verify your email
I hope this helped you. Strangely, you can only select "None" Under Credit Card if you do it this way. Must be some iTunes bug.

I have the *exact* same issue I think. Even though I'm running ios8.1, the passbook screen shows the old ios8.0.2 screen which doesn't include the abilty to add a credit card. Also, in the settings screen I don't see the Passbook option (in the section with iCloud and iTunes & App Store) where you're supposed to see the new Passbook option. I called Apple Support last night and they suggested backing up my phone and restoring to ios8.1 factory defaults. Did that, signed in with my appleID without doing a restore from backup and it still didn't work (i.e. wasn't given the ability to add Credit Card). I have an USA itunes account using a USA credit card and live in NYC. The applid ID is a shared ... maybe that's the reason it's not working?

TS1646 Hi I downloaded Itunes version 10.6 and I can't register my credit card to purchase somethign there because the credit card security code, accordin Apple, is invalid but isnot true. I'd like receive a solution soon because I change the cards and th

I cant register my credit card there because the security code is invalid for any cards that I use there... so insot true.. the code is correct.

Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorisations have the correct information on file.
And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

When I register my credit card information in itunes. It said that please contact itunes support to complete this transaction.

Your billing address doesn't seem to match the credit card you entered.

Hey everybody,
I would like to purchase the phoyoshop+lightroom programm but I constantly get the following error message:
"Your billing address doesn't seem to match the credit card you entered. Check to make sure you entered this information correctly, and if you still can't place your order, please call us at +1 800-585-0774. If you're not in North America, you can look up a local number here."
I am positive that the information I entered is correct as I checked and tried it more than ten times.
Does anybody know what could be the problem and how to fix it?
Esther

I have the same issue. Haven't been able to get any work done for almost a week now. I have contacted the support chat 8 times by now - most unhelpful support ever. They all give me the same advice even though i say that i already tried that as if they are reading their answers off a pre-written sheet.
I have tried 2 credit cards, i have confirmed everything, including the address, with my bank - all good there. Desperate for help, my boss is gonna have my balls soon -.-

TS1646 I'm having trouble registering my credit card on iTunes it keeps declining and it's a valid card

I'm having trouble registering my credit card on iTunes it keeps declining my card I have two of them and it declined it can someone help me.

What are you seeing on the iPad's screen when trying to purchase things, and is this the first time that you've tried to download anything from the store ?
If it's the first time then unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : Create an iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store account without a credit card or other payment method
then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
If you are getting a prompt to review the account then you could see if the steps on this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : Re: What do I do if I do not have a credit card.

HT1918 Unable register my credit card in india

Unable to register my credit card in India

Hi ...
If this applies, your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."

HT2534 How Can I Use Itunes Without A Credit Card?

This problem is really starting to annoy me.
At first, I tried to make my Apple ID in Itunes, I wasn't able to make it though because I did not have a credit card. I had a look at the support and found out that there should be a 'None' option next to Visa, Mastercard, Paypal etc. I go through the process again in Itunes, expecting to find this 'None' button, but it does not exist. All there is is Visa and Mastercard. And option for Paypal isn't even there, even though the article I checked showed an image with it being there (Article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534).
So, I try to make my account via the apple.com website. I complete this with no question of billing, and I think the problem is solved. However, when I try to log in on Itunes, it is, once again, requesting my billing information which I cannot provide because I do not have a credit card.
Maybe Apple needs to make it possible for people who do not have credit cards to use this service that I have 'been told' is very good. Or maybe they should stop providing us with article with obviously outdated images.
If anyone has a solution to this problem, please let me know.

You can create a new account without credit card but you cannot change your exisiting account into NONE payment account.
Follow the instruction and create an account without credit card in iTunes on your computer.
Or on your iPod Touch, Purchase a free App then create a new appleID.

HT2589 in our country we dont have iTune Store if i create iTunes accounts in another country can i use my local bank credit card??

In our country we dont have iTune Store if i create iTunes accounts in another country (example UK) can i use my local bank credit card??

No, you need to be in a country and have a valid billing address in that country to be able to use a country's store. If there isn't an iTunes store in your country then unfortunately you won't be able to buy any content from iTunes.

You use a debit card just like you use a credit card in iTunes. You have to enter the card number, security code and billing address as you would with a credit card when you set up the ID. You can make changes to your payment method in your account at any time.
If you want to create an Apple ID without using a credit card you must first sign out of the Apple ID that you already created in Settings>Store>Your Apple ID.
But ...you will also need another email address now if you already created an Apple ID, because that first email address is now associated with that first ID that you created.
If you do have a debit card, you may just be better off entering that card information into your account and use that now. You don't need to even use the debit card if you can purchase iTunes gift cards and redeem those. I use iTunes gift cards exclusively now instead of using my credit card.
