HT1918 Why is my security code invalid

Hello, I have been having an issue for awhile trying to be able to download apps from the apple store. Every time I try to re enter my debit card information, it says there was a billing issue and that the security code entered is invalid...which it's not. It's frustrating because I can't even update anything. I have only purchased one thing and that was months ago for 1.00. I really want to be able to update things...can you please help me. Thank you.

  • Why do I keep getting the security code invalid message when trying to change my credit card info. Being trying to get this right for 3 days

    My old credit card expired so I'm putting in new information but I keep getting this message security code invalid.  Why?

    Hi BT54,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, I'm not sure if this is causing the issue but it is a possible cause. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    Payment methods you can use in the iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store, and iBooks Store - Apple Support
    If you create an account for a child under 13* in Family Sharing, you must use a credit card as the payment method. After you create the child’s Apple ID, however, you can change your payment method back to a debit card.
    Cheers,
    Mario

  • HT3702 For payment it says security code invalid

    Payment says security code invalid

    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 authorizations 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

    It keeps saying there's a billing problem with last purchase an to update payment method, but it keeps saying security code invalid. What do I do?

    Type in the three digit code from the back of your credit/debit card to update your payment method/information. I had the same "security code invalid" response today... this is all it wanted me to do.

    Alyssa0909 please try utilizing a different web browser.  I would also recommend reviewing Renew, extend, or restart your membership which discusses how you can update your payment information.

  • HT1918 It says my security code is invalid

    Why is it saying my security code is invalid when it's correct?

    The same thing has been happening to me, if you have a PayPal account you  can bypass it. And my account is linked to my card anyway so it still comes from the same place
    Only fix i can find but its working great for me, i can update download and purchase
    The option to change it to PayPalnis only availible on iTunes on the computer under account and billing info

    The security code is the 3 or 4 digit code on your credit card : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3541
    If it's a debit card that you are trying to use then I don't think that they are still accepted as a valid payment method - they are not listed on this page and there have been a number of posts recently about them being declined
    If it's a credit card then is it registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, it was issued by a bank in your country and you are currently in that country ? If it is then you could check with the card issuer to see if it's them that are declining it, and if not then try contacting iTunes support and see if they know why it's being declined : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

  • Security Code Invalid preventing me from signing in to iTunes Store

    I just got itunes today and I created an account but I can't actually do anything because as soon as I click "Sign in" for the itunes store, I get a message saying "This Apple ID has not yet been used with the iTunes Store. Please review your information." The only options I have are "Review" or "Cancel". When I click "Review" it asks me to enter my credit card information. I enter it, but it tells me that my Security Code is invalid. Now I know there's a workaround by using this information: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 The problem is, I can't even log in to go to my account settings in order to re-enter my information. I know all the information is the same as what my bank has on record. Is there any other way to fix this issue? It's preventing me from using the iTunes Store.

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.
