ITunes Store: "Right now the credit card processing is not available. Please try again later . "

Hi, I live in Bogota, Colombia. I have a first generation iPad and decided to enter my credit card to my iTunes Store account but I put the data correctly and when I accept I said "Right now the credit card processing is not available. Please try again later . " I tried several days but always says the same thing, try creating a new account at the iTunes Store but do not, someone could help me with my problem. THANK YOU

I was having this exact issue when I was set up to use PayPal as my payment method. I fixed it by -
1. going to my iTunes account and selecting None as my method of payment, then clicking Done
2. confirming this on my account page - which then said Add (or Set up, I can't remember) a Credit Card
3. on the Add a credit card page, I again set up the exact same PayPal account I had before.
4. I was then taken to the PayPal website to confirm that I wanted to use my PayPal account for iTunes purchases, and finally
5. I was taken back to my account page in iTunes, which looked exactly the same as before BUT...
The next time I tried it, my purchase went straight through! (And this was less than 5 minutes after I'd had the "Credit Card processing is temporarily unavailable" message.)
YMMV, but I guess a similar revalidation process would work for credit cards too.
