HT3702 Why is my debit card being declined when I put it down for billing?

When I put all of my debit cards info in (correctly) it won't accept it. Why?

There is doubt as to whether debit cards are still accepted in the iTunes Store for a number of countries. Many people have reported their debit cards being rejected, and debit cards are not listed as current valid payment methods, though it does say that it can vary by country:

You can try contacting the iTunes Store and asking if there is any way to use your card, but they may tell you that it's not possible.

  • Why is my debit card being declined when I have money on my apple ID account?

    I am attempting to comets an in-app purchase and each time I am re-routed to a page where they are asking me to update my credit card information, I do so and it informs me that my card has been declined. I have over $10.00 on my apple account via iTunes and was under the impression that purchases would be deducted from there first. I am hoping that this is just an error on my part and that  this can be resolved easily, thanks in advance for any and all help!!!

    Is this the US store? How much is the item? Apple US store prices do not reflect sales tax which is added in the final steps of a sale. If your account credit does not cover the full cost, then you must have a bank card to charge the remainder of the balance. For whatever rason your bank card is being declined, so the sale cannot be finalized.

  • HT1918 Why is my debit card being charged for iTune purchases when my account is set up with my Amex card

    Why is my debit card being charged for iTunes purchases when my iTunes account is set up with my Amex card?

    Login to the account on iTunes and under payment info, select none for the credit card. iTunes is supposed to use gift cards and store credit over credit cards but it doesn't.

    why is my credit card being charged when i have money from an itunes card

    When its around the holiday season the purchasing system some times gets a lil thrown off and wont recognize the gift card on the account. But its easy to get fixed.
    Just contact iTunes uspport with this link and they will revert the charges to the gift card:

  • HT3702 why is my credit card being charged?

    Why is my credit card being billed and how can I fix it?

    Have you checked the purchase history on your account (Store > View My Account on your computer's iTunes) ? If you don't recognise the charges and you bought anything, including any in-app purchases and subscriptions, then you can contact iTunes support (these are user-to-user forums) and ask for help : 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

  • HT3702 why is my credit card being charged, i only use itune cards .you are charging my itune card and my credit card

    why is my credit card being charged, i only use itune cards .you are charging my itune card and my credit card

    These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here. If you add or change your credit card details then you will probably receive a temporary holding charge ($1), which should disappear within a few days (holding charges). If it's not a holding charge then you can contact iTunes support and ask for help : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

    Contact your card provider. You can't troubleshoot that by yourself.

  • Card being declined when I have a voucher on my account?

    Hi there,
    I signed into my account to purchase a couple of songs. I have $11.96 on my account (from a voucher) and I get this message http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/3360/123lb.png
    That other device should only be my iPod touch.
    anyway, I re-fill my info in and get this http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/6527/1234y.png
    Now, I don't have enough on said card to purchase anything. But this should matter as there is already $11.86 on my account!
    Whats going wrong?
    thanks in advance...

    My problem is slightly similar but with a twist. Any ideas anyone?
    I've recently moved from Chicago, IL, USA, to the Netherlands (Europe). My iTunes account is valid for the American iTunes store.
    Due to the fact that I have recently changed my billing addres from my American credit card to my current address in the Netherlands, so I will receive all my corresondence over here, I can't buy anything anymore in the American iTunes store. I have also bought myself a iPhone 4 in the Netherlands and when setting this up with my iTunes I got the message that I had to verify my funding source for the American iTunes account. When I put in the three number code on the back of the credit card, I get an error message as the billing address now no longer corresponds with the details of that account that the American iTunes account has.
    When I want to change my country of residence on the American iTunes account to the Netherlands I get a warning message that all allowances will become void. That is not what I want as I currently have a credit of approx. $45 on my American iTunes account. Before I left the USA I also bought a number of American iTunes gift cards so I knew that I would be able to have some credit when accessing my American iTunes account from abroad. If however I am now forced to change my country of residence to the Netherlands I will loose the $45 credit and my American iTunes gift cards can not be used and are therefore a loss to me as well.
    Any ideas for a solution for this problem? Is it possible to have an American iTunes account based purely on American iTunes gift cards for the time being and until I return to the USA and resume my American bank account with an American billing address?
    Or is it possible to have my American iTunes allowance (once I enter all the iTunes gift cards) transferred to a Dutch iTunes account so I will be able to use the balance of the iTunes gift cards which I've already paid for.
    Hope someone can help.

    Sounds like you have abn expired credit card linked o yoru accopunt.
    View your iTunes account payment info and select None for the CC.
    You may need to first add a valid card number before you can remove it.

    Why is my debit card being declined?

    I've heard that iTunes is no longer accepting debit cards.  Try a credit card or an iTunes gift card.

    Is your card a debit card?  I don't believe debit cards can be used.  Try a credit card.
