Invalid Security Code for my valid debit card?

Really!!!! I guess poor people like me who spend so much money on the **** device first of all (iPhone) and the **** phone bill, have a limit to purchasing "FREE" apps from the app store because apparently, now my apple ID won't accept my debit card information! INVALID SECURITY CODE!!! -____-
Tried to to work around this stupid obstacle. 1000 times maybe. Tried using my Husband's debit card, my siblings credit card...NOTHING. Still, my apple ID didn't want to accept the info. WHAT TO DO, WHAT TO DO. Not like my whole life revolves around buying apps from the app store via Iphone, its just...THATS WHAT I BOUGHT THE **** PHONE FOR, the benefits...the whole shabang!
So I discoverved that I could make a new apple ID. How convenient it was for me to make a new email address - a valid one, and make a new apple ID. I scored! GENIUS. The option isnt there though. You need to sign out of your current apple ID and then the option tabs pop up. SMART MOVE. smart *** move.

Sasha,
You'll need to contact your bank and make sure that your name and billing address match EXACTLY with the name and billing address on your iTunes account, and if they don't then you'll need to update that information on your iTunes account. If they don't match then you're eventually going to have the same problem with your new Apple ID.

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?

When I tried updating my apps it says invalid security code for my credit card.

Basically when I try updating an app it says to login. Ok say once I log in it makes me update billing info. When I put my cc info in (which has a 0$ balance) it says invalid security code. This is complete ********, I can't even download FREE apps OR update the ones I have. Im considering going back to android. This is ridiculous.

you cannot place a card on the account that has no balance to it...
you can hit the "None" option if you owe nothing to the itunes store

Invalid security code for iphone 4

I'm not sure if I am posting in the correct area of this page but oh well. I recently received a iphone 4 from my husband. And after having the phone for one week, I could not download any apps to my phone because of billing info or invalid security code. Here's what worked for me. If you do not have any money on the card, it will continue to display invalid security code. Hope this helps. Good luck!!!

I'm having the same issue. But why the **** is it all of a sudden requiring a legitimate credit card just to download FREE apps? Or even UPDATE free apps??

Debit card? Are you sure?
USA iTunes Store does not appear to accept debit cards - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html "The iTunes Store, Mac App Store, App Store, and iBookstore services (“Services”) accept these forms of payment: credit cards issued by U.S. banks, payments through your PayPal account, iTunes Cards, iTunes Store Gift Certificates, Content Codes, and Allowance Account balances."

HT3702 How do you contact iTunes to recover money they charged my bank account with out my authorization. Invalid security code problem. Could not fix card issue.Changed bank card information and I got charged for tiny zoo bucks $24.99. I Got no zoo bucks

Changed bank card. Got charged $24.99 from iTunes for a prior purchase that would not go thru due to invalid security code. When put new information on iTunes payment . iTunes charged my account without me confirming order and I didn't even receive the zoo buck 50% sale special. They just took my money . Now I can't connect to iTunes Store because they are fixing problems. What can I do to get my money . Can't even reach tiny zoo who gets the money. iTunes should of sent a confirmation request when new card was submitted before taking money.

Thanks, but I've been on the phone with AppleCare US (where I am and live) and AppleCare UK. They continue bouncing me back and forth without helping resolve the problem.
Perhaps someones knows how to further escalate the issue at Apple?

What is the solution for invalid security code please?

How am I suppose to get this fix? Please can someone help me out?

HT204266 How come my credit card says invalid security code when I put my code in at the App Store?

How come my credit card says invalid security code when I put my code in at the App Store? I have a bunch of free apps when I had my ipad 1 now I have 2 and my credit card will not be read as authentic Watson ever I tried my girls card nothing do I need to have money on it for a free download? I even bought a couple of games but why with so many free ones? Please help me I'm slow so walkit through with me thnx also my ipad 2 is brand new out da box and I accidentally updated to 6.0 without finding out first about it so some pointers to it would help ...which I think that it has something to do with it.

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 Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
For iOS I would expect an updated version of the manual to appear here at some point : http://support.apple.com/manuals/ipad/
In the meantime there is this : http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/

unable to download apps to my new ipod touch .. message keeps saying my security code for credit card is not valid...please help

Credit card either isn't supported with the purchase or you typed it wrong.
Or just log out, log back in and type again. Could be a system error.

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.
