Credit card is not accepted

I wanted to subscribe two licences, but Adobe doesn't accept my credit card. It works with other payments without problem.
What can I do?

"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. You can use the iTunes Store in all countries of which you’re a resident, but you’ll either need a separate iTunes Store account for each one, or you’ll need to continually be switching your billing information on your single account. Generally, it’s simpler just to set up an alternative account for these situations."

Hey there longislandmacca,
It sounds like your iPod is not recognized in either Explorer, or in iTunes on your PC. That can be frustrating, expecially when its a new device. I recommend you use the following article to help resolve that issue named:

The App store stopped accepting my credit card all of a sudden. It says that my credit card is "not supported by the Chilean app store"... The credit card is Chilean and was working just fine. Help!

This is the second time this happens. I was living in the US until April 2011. I moved to Chile and kept using the App Store and the iTunes Store just fine with my US-issued credit card. However, when I accessed my Apple ID from a different device, the store stopped recognizing my credit card information and migrated my ID to the "Chilean" App & Itunes Store (significantly less apps & music... but anyway). I started using my Chilean credit card on the App and iTunes store with no issues. I supposed that the devices catched that I was no longer in the US and that I had to be transferred to the related store (which I think is fine), and that because I was now in the Chilean store I needed to use a Chilean-issued credit card (which doesn't make sense to me, I still don't understand why Apple stopped accepting my US credit card if it is accepted everywhere else in the world online and offline!).
However, yesterday I bought something from my iPad and when today I went to use the app store from my iPhone the SAME THING happened. I got the same request to "update my billing information", I confirmed my Chilean credit card info and, surprise! "Your credit card is not supported by the Chilean app store"...
I don't get it. If I didn't get it the first time, I ended up accepting it an getting over it because ok, I moved to another country and my account was migrated, etc. But now, it doesn't recognize my local credit card in my local store! I tried both my local Visa and my local MasterCard, and none of them worked. It looks like my account will not accept ANY credit card, no matter wheter I try to update the info from my mobile devices, on iTunes, on the Mac App Store, etc.
It has been impossible for me to find any information on what causes this and on how to solve it, and so far I hadn't had any trouble with Apple and hadn't need any support before, but now that I need URGENT SUPPORT, I've come to realize that THEY SUCK at being accessible! There's no way I can contact them! So, please help me!!!!! I need urgent help!!!!
Thanks and sorry for the very long post.

Same thing happened to me with my peruvian credit card in the peruvian app store, I want to buy an app, but it says that my credit card is "not supported in the Peruvian app store"

Your credit card does not match your bank's records

your credit card does not match your bank's records. appears at purchase in itunes store.
2 months with no solution on this. Nothing has changed with my bank at all. Yet apple was able to bill the same card for my mobile me acct. so the card does in fact work! I emailed and got what I already knew. see below, then my reply.
Dear Eric,
You can change your iTunes Store billing information at any time. When you update your credit card number or billing address through the iTunes Store, any equivalent information you might use with MobileMe, iPhoto, Aperture, or the Apple Store online is also updated.
To update your billing address or credit card number, follow these steps:
1) Make sure you're using the latest version of iTunes. It can be downloaded free of charge from the Apple website:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download
Eric, installing the latest version of iTunes will not affect your library or any items in your account that you haven't downloaded.
2) Click this link: http://phobos.apple.com/accountSummary
iTunes will automatically launch and the sign-in dialog will appear.
3) If you are not already signed in, you will need to enter your iTunes Store account name and password and then click the Account Info button.
4) On your Apple Account Information page, click Edit Payment Information
Make the necessary changes. Your billing address should be exactly the same as the address on your credit card statement and with the United States Postal Service (click "Find a ZIP Code" at http://www.usps.com and follow the onscreen instructions). This is important, because even differences in punctuation, abbreviation, and capitalization can cause payment errors that might prevent you from using the iTunes Store.
5) When all of the information is up to date, click Done.
When you update your billing information, the iTunes Store places an authorization hold on your credit card to verify your account information. You might see this authorization request on your online statement. This is not an actual charge; it is simply a test to confirm that your credit card account is active and has credit available to accommodate transactions.
Authorization requests are automatically removed from your account by your financial institution. The amount of time it takes to remove authorization requests varies by financial institution. If you have any questions about the way your financial institution handles authorization requests, please contact their customer-service department.
Thank you for your time. If you have any other questions or concerns, regarding your iTunes Store account, Eric, please feel free to reply to this email. Have a great day.
Sincerely,
Timothy

My reply
I've read the support pages through and through and have gone through all of these steps in the past. Nothing on my end has changed. This card has been used for approx three years now, never to have been edited. As stated... In the midst of all of this difficulty, you were able to bill the same card for my mobile me subscription. Which should technically not gone through due to the supposed billing info not matching my bank's records! So quite simply, my card does work, this is something on your end, not my bank.
And I did however change the type case to match my statement to no avail. This never made a difference in the past, but I tried it regardless.
After attempting things for two months, I am growing tired of trying to spend my money on Apple. I will try one more suggestion if one is available. After that, I have had great success with the amazon store and may have to flip over to them. My time is way too valuable to be troubleshooting a problem I did not create.
any specific help would be appreciated (please do not copy and paste tips from the support pages... been there)
Eric

As a follow up to my last post, I thought I would offer you my customer service experience as I am hoping you can avoiding going through what I've been through and that this will save you some time.
I'm listing the discourse chronologically for your convenience:
Specific request: My credit card or billing information is not accepted
Details:
iTunes says my credit card information does not match my bank information and will not let me make purchases. I have updated my account information and I still cannot make purchases. I get the same message that my card does not match my bank's information- which it does.
Please help.

Dear ----------,
Welcome to Apple iTunes Store Customer Support. My name is Snehashish.
I am sorry to hear that you haven't been able to make purchases on the iTunes Store with your credit card. I know this is frustrating, and I will try to provide as much information as I can to help you resolve it.
-----------, upon checking your account I find your credit card will be expired after this month. So you have to change it then. I suggest you to change it now or contact your credit card company as it is declined by iTunes.
The iTunes Store has been unable to verify an authorization from your credit card company. There are several possible reasons for this:
- Your credit card company's servers may have been busy. Trying again later may resolve the issue.
- Your card may not have been activated yet. If so, you will need to activate it.
- You may need to call your credit card company before the authorization is approved.
- You may need to ensure that you correctly located the credit card's security code. To see instructions for locating the security code, choose View My Account from the iTunes Store menu, sign in to your account, click Edit Payment Information, and then click the "What is this?" link next to the Security Code field.
- Your billing name or address does not match the address listed on your credit card statement. Any discrepancy in punctuation, abbreviation, or capitalization can cause errors, which might prevent you from purchasing from the iTunes Store. If you moved, or if your zip code changed recently, ask your credit card company to make sure its records are up to date and match exactly what you are entering as your billing information.
--------, please follow these steps to confirm or update your account information:
1) Go to the My Apple ID site 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 left column.
6) Confirm or edit your information.
7) Click "Phone Numbers" on the left. Make sure the area codes and phone numbers are entered correctly in their respective fields.
8) Click Save Changes.
Once your information is updated, try placing an order on the iTunes Store again. If the iTunes Store still cannot obtain an authorization for your card, it means that your billing information is still incorrect, either with your credit card company or with its verification system, which may be handled by another company.
Fortunately, you may be able to make iTunes Store purchases with another payment method. For example, if PayPal accepts your credit card, you can use your PayPal account to buy from the iTunes Store. If you need more information about using PayPal on the iTunes Store, please let me know.
------, I hope this information is helpful. Thank you for your interest; I am pleased that you want to be an iTunes Store customer. Have a great day!
Sincerely,
Snehashish

Hello again,
I wanted to send a quick note to see if you are still experiencing any difficulties with the iTunes Store. Resolving your issue is important to me, so please don't hesitate to reply if you need any further assistance.
Sincerely,
Snehashish
iTunes Store Customer Support
Greetings Snehashish,
When I wrote my original ticket it was to address the issue of the fact I had already updated my credit card information and I was still receiving the error message of "my credit card not matching my bank information" in iTunes. Giving me instructions on how to update my account information was not helpful because I had already taken that step. So, no, my problem remains unresolved and I am unable to make any purchases in iTunes or update my iPhone.
Luckily, the item I was looking to purchase was available on Amazon digitally so I went ahead and bought it there without any problem whatsoever with my credit card- furthering the mystery and the enigma that is iTunes rejection of my credit card.
Please send the next step to resolve my issue or please forward my ticket to someone who can resolve this for me.
Thank you,
Dear ------------,
Welcome back to Apple iTunes Store Customer Support. This is Snehashish again.
I am glad to hear that your credit card works on another website. Some of our customer resolves this type of issue by removing credit card from their account, buy a free app and then re-add the credit card to account. I suggest you to try that.

1) Open iTunes and sign in to the iTunes Store.
2) Select "View My Account" from the Store menu.
3) Enter your password and click the View Account button.
4) Click the Edit Payment Information button.
5) Select "None" as the payment type.
6) Click the Done button at the bottom of the page.
After you select the "None" option, please attempt to download a free App from iTunes Store. Then sign out from your account and sign in back and re-add your credit card information.
--------, then, please follow these steps to confirm or update your account's information:
1) Go to the My Apple ID site 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 left column.
6) Confirm or edit your information.
7) Click "Phone Numbers" on the left. Make sure the area codes and phone numbers are entered correctly in their respective fields.
8) Click Save Changes.
Once your information is updated, try placing an order on the iTunes Store again.
If you have further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me again. Have a nice day, ----------!
Hello again Snehashish,
My address is confirmed and matches my bank account. I followed the steps as you directed with deleting my information downloading the free application and then re-entering my payment information. I continue get the error message that my credit card information does not match my bank's records. I have as of today called the bank and confirmed twice that my banking address is correct. The error is not happening on the banking side of the equation.
Please send the next step to resolve my issue or please forward my ticket to someone who can resolve this for me.
Thank you very much,
Dear -------,
Welcome back to Apple iTunes Store Customer Support. This is Snehashish again.
Thank you for your response. Upon reviewing your account I find you removed that credit card successfully. I suggest you to update that information to start purchasing. You can also use gift card as well.
--------, you can change your iTunes Store billing information at any time. When you update your credit card number or billing address through the iTunes Store, any equivalent information you might use with MobileMe, iPhoto, Aperture, or the Apple Store online is also updated.

Despite already having the current version of iTunes, I re-downloaded the program and installed it on my computer. I logged into the link you sent me. I entered in my banking (again and without mistake) information exactly as it is on my billing information. I have now entered my credit card information correctly on iTunes repeatedly- it has not deviated nor changed and there has never been a mistake in my data entry. I have used this credit card at other locations and online stores without error and my banking and credit card information is correct.
I entered a credit card I DO NOT want to use in conjunction with my iTunes account and it was accepted without incident or error message. The problem is that the card I do want to use, that I NEED to use to make purchases on iTunes is not accepted. Both cards are issued through the same bank- one is debit and one is credit and they both link to the same bank account with the same home address. The debit card is being rejected and the credit card is accepted. My problem is not my address nor the account number as both have been entered correctly multiple times. iTunes is rejecting my particular card even though it is working and matches my bank information. This is the card I have always used to make purchases on iTunes and this error started when my old card expired and I attempted to update my account.
Every time I re-enter my credit card and try to make a purchase and I always get the following message:
"There are errors or omissions in the information. Please correct the indicated items: Your credit card does not match your bank's records. Please enter a US credit card and a matching billing address."
I have reset, re-downloaded, and re-entered everything on my end multiple times resulting in the same error from iTunes. I want to know what is happening with my account. If you do not have a solution then please escalate this ticket and please put me in contact with someone who can help me.
Thank you for your time,
I found my solution in the Apple Support Community. It had nothing to do with my information being incorrect. I do not require your assistance any longer.
My issue resolution was actual very simple and came from this page. iTunes has a bug where it will not accept your information but if you add your credit card under you account in the Apple Store and CONFIRM then it will appear in your iTunes account automatically. I could have saved hours of email, calls to the bank and stupid angst if I had looked this up instead of TRYING to use Apple Customer Support. I've learned my lesson. I just want you to know that iTunes is bugged and broken in this respect and no matter how many times you enter your information IT DOESN'T WORK. I hope this helps someone else.
Apple please tell your customer support people how to actually help instead of having them paste in worthless form letters on how to use a credit card with iTunes. Obviously it iTunes that is broken.
PLEASE FIX.

When we purchase from iTunes the balance is not coming off of the gift cards. We have family sharing on but when my kids purchase songs they are credited to our credit card and not the gift card that is already in their account. What's wrong?

You will need to sign into your account using the iTunes app on your Mac or PC and change the region/country for your account. If you do not have a bank card for the new country, you should be able to make purchases with iTunes Gift Cards if they are available in the new country.

So I need to buy a TV series on my family's account, and we want it just to charge the credit card and not the money from an iTunes Card that's already on the account. Is there any way to do this?

So I need to buy a TV series on my family's account, and we want it just to charge the credit card and not the money from an iTunes Card that's already on the account. Is there any way to do this?

I am pretty sure it will always use the credit card unless payment method is set to none.
That has been my experience anyway.
They already have the money from the gift card so would rather collect from your credit card.

Sorry. Credit Cards are not allowed at this store....

So, I have a US based credit card and I'm located in the US. All of my account info is updated with my latest address and credit card info. I can't seem to purchase anything in the store with a credit card. When I click on buy it brings up the message "Sorry. Credit Cards are not allowed at this store."
Really? Nokia doesn't want to sell me anything? Is this a bug or intentional?

At some point in the US, if you used AT&T SIM cards, the Nokia/Ovi Store required that purchases are done via the phone bill (so called operator/carrier billing). Presumably Nokia's agreement with AT&T states that for AT&T customers, credit/debit card payments are to be disabled. I'm not sure if this still the situation in the US.

Read the steps in the support article from which you came carefully as the order in which you follow them is critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
If you are certain you're following the steps exactly as given and are creating a new Apple ID and still have problems, go here:
