MacBook Payment Methods?

I put this question in here because it did not fit in with any of the other MacBook forums. If you know of a better place for this question to go, please let me know!
I plan on buying the MacBook that costs $1,299. I would like to pay the monthly fee of (or around) $31. In order to pay a monthly fee though I read that you need to either pay with the Juniper Visa Card or pay with the Bill Me Later method. Both of which I have questions and have no found answers to on the forums or by anyone who has talked to me through the Apple phone lines.
1] Is the Juniper Visa Card like any other credit card? Example: I would purchase the MacBook online with it and then I would recieve a monthly bill to pay it off? If so, once the MacBook is paid off would I still have the Juniper Visa Card or would I be able to get rid of it/cancel it?
2] To my knowledge if I select the Bill Me Later method the MacBook will be shipped to me within 24 hours, but the bill will not arrive till a later time? And once the bill arrives I can choose to either pay the MacBook off in full or pay it off as a monthly bill? If I choose the monthly bill, it's be $31 for the MacBook, but will there be another cost added onto that for using the Bill Me Later method?
3] For both payment options, will I be able to pay off more than $31 a month in order to pay off the MacBook sooner? Or is that not allowed and you are ONLY allowed to pay just $31?
4] With either payment, will it still ship within 24 hrs?
5] If I have all of this information wrong, please let me know and help me as best as you can. I'd especially like to hear from people who have actually used one of these methods.

Bill Me Later method does not mean the computer is shipped to you, then you pay later. It simply means that you will be billed later, then must arrange payment method after which the computer will be shipped to you. No vendor in their right mind would ship a computer to someone who hasn't yet paid for it.
Any credit card method of payment means that the purchase is charged to the credit card. You would then make monthly payments to the credit card issuer or bank. After you pay off the bill you still have the card and can use it like any other charge card.
In order to get the credit card you will have to provide your information so the issuer can check your credit and determine if they will issue you a card.

  • "Your payment method was declined. Please enter another payment method" Error

    Hello,
    I've been trying to download an app for about two hours now. I recently got a new Macbook and iPad, my iPhone is a bit older and has been used frequently. I have only bought paid apps with my iPhone (and other iPad -- not usable currently). I have been trying to download a game which is $4.99 on my account, I have tried with my Mac, iPad, and iPhone, no luck. Every time I get a error saying "Your payment method was declined. Please enter another payment method". I know for a fact I have more than enough money to pay for this app. All the details have been checked and checked again. What is the problem?
    I also get an error when first buying the game (or attemting to) and it says something along the lines of "You've recently used a new device or computer to access this apple id, please sign in to confirm your purchase". That then leads to my confirmation of my security code on my card, which is triggering the first mentioned error.
    Apple Support has not yet given me a response, can any of you help?

    I think that for some international copyright issue, Apple is now blocking purchases from your store if they detect that your IP is outside the frontiers. I've been using my Canadian Visa Card for two years to purchase from France on ITune Store Canada and I never had a problem until today. Impossible to buy RunKeeper Pro. I get the same message you get. The only option seems to swithch back to IStore France and modify the account details with a french address and a french credit card.
    Are you in a similar situation?

  • HT1918 Can I have multiple payment methods on one account

    Currently, both of my teenage sons and I are sharing an Apple account with one payment method. I would like to have a payment method for each of us.

    If they are teenagers, it is not too soon to set up individual accounts per person. 
    This will address the separate payments issue, and will make it much easier in a few years when they start heading off to university or moving to their own living arrangements.

  • How do I change my payment method. I put in debit card info. It now says security code invalid, but it isn't. I understand that might be the wrong type of payment. But now it won't let me edit this info. It is also blocking me from updates and free dlds.

    How to change payment method or delete improper info.?

    Try signing out of your account, Reset the iPad [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is absolutely safe..... And sign back in again!

  • Why is my payment method declined. I ask the bank and they told that's no any problems with my card also i used my card on booking and amazon and everywhere and it's ok

    Last night I attempted to purchase an app from the App Store on my iPhone 5s The previous day I had purchased an app with no issues, and this time was told that my payment method was invalid. When I clicked 'Continue' to fix my information, everything was correct so I re-inputted my credit card security code and tapped done. No, fail, declined.
    I called my bank as I am currently vacationing in Libya  and if my debit card (the card my iTunes account uses) starts getting declined I will have issues. No, no problems, they had a note in my account that I was traveling, and there are no holds or flags on my spending. She also noted that the iTunes store had requested a verification of $0.99 but had not charged the card for the amount.

    OOnce the $ .99 charge goes through to verify your payment method, you should be able to make your purchase.
    wait 24-48 hours and try again.

  • Default payment method issue in Additional Off-Cycle Payments

    Hello everyone,
    I have an issue with Additional Off-Cycle Payments and running this in payroll driver.
    I have maintained V_T52OCB  or "Define default values for payment methods" in IMG as Check (C) but when I run payroll for this employee I see that payroll driver is considering Infotype 0009 which is a direct deposit but when I run the same employee in OFF-CYCLE Workbench I see that the run is defaulted to Check and is not considering Infotype 0009 which is correct.
    What I don't understand is the same record when processed through regular payroll driver (RPCALC) is considering Infotype 0009 but Off-cycle is considering default payment method for Off-Cycle defined in IMG.
    Has anyone seen this kind of issue?
    Thanks,
    Hemanth.

    Hello Hemanth,
    The value you maintain in V_T52OCB  is only for defaulting the Payment type in Offcycle Workbench Screen for the Reason you have choosen for the offcycle, it doesn't mean it would be run only by that payment type and you can overrite in offcycle workbench itself by choosing the other payment type.
    For Offcycle run it always with the value entered in IT 0009, For off-cycle, if there is a valid record with subtype 5/6, it will be used otherwise subtype 0/1 will be used if payment method selected is according to IT.
    If payment method is not according to IT a new record will be created in IT 0009 for the exact date.
    For Manual check, the check number can be entered in Offcycle workbench.
    I hope it clarified your doubt.
    With Regards,
    S.Karthik

  • Can not do anything on the app store ( need to update my payment method)

    Ok, so i got my ipad about a year ago, and for the first three months, i have been using itunes cards to download stuff from the app store. Soon after this, i realised that since i dont really go out, it could be a bit of an inconvenience for me, so i decided to use my debit card instead. Things were great, until i reslised i had no money left on my account, which apple notifies you of by saying "your payment method has been declined". At first i was confused, but after trying to buy things from amazon and steam and getting the same error, i realised that i had no money. This is where the problem began. The fact that i couldnt buy apps didn't bother me, but what DID bother me was the fact that i couldn't update my apps, download free apps or even install apps i have already payed for without getting that **** error message. This lasted for a little while before i got more money on my account and it worked again. But that isn't the end of the story, about a week ago, i could no longer do anything on the app store without getting that error, EVENTHOUGH i have money on my account. I knew this because right after that error messaged popped up for the trillionth time, i brought a book from amazon with absolutely NO PROBLEMS.
    I am so irritated. Fix this apple!

    The security code is on the back of your credit card.

  • Iphone's App store rejects payment method, even for free apps! Someone please help me!

    Hi
    Last night i downloaded some apps, that i had to pay for using my Visa Credit Card. I have had this set as my payment method for ages. Anyway, it all worked and i got the apps, but today i tried to download another app, which was free and i had to sign in to my Apple ID or whatever the prompt is, so that i could download the free app.
    I signed in and recieved another popup asking me to sign in and review billing information. I pressed OK and signed in again and was taken to the billing information and payment information page. On this page it says that there was an error with a previous purchase from the App Store and that i must check all my payment information is correct.  All the information that i had entered there when first adding my payment method was still there. Except for the security code.
    I re-entered the security code and pressed done, and the page said that the payment information was not valid, or not allowed and asks me to change my payment information and / or method. So i re-enter all my information for my payment method and it still doesn' t work. It still says that there is an error with a previous purchase and that i must recheck or change my payment and billing information. The error cannot be right though, as all the apps that i have either downloaded or bought have downloaded fine.
    Sometimes the error message changes to saying my payment information has been rejected, which cannot be right either, as i was using the payment method yesterday. I know i don't have any funds in my account at the moment, but that should not be relevant as i am trying to download a free app.
    I tried downloading different free apps, but was unsuccessful.
    Because I spent around an hour or so trying to download the app, i then downloaded the lastest software update, which was 6.0.1 or something. I updated from the 5.something software.
    I was still unable to download anything from the app store.
    I have tried to edit the billing and payment information from the App Store, Safari on the Iphone and from Google Chrome on my computer, none of these have helped.
    If someone has a soloution or if Apple can sort my account out, i will be so grateful.
    I use an Iphone 3gs and updated the software on it after my payment information wasn't working for about an hour.

    This happened to me about a year ago, call Apple customer service and they should be able to help. It had something to do with Apple's system not reading the credit card info correctly even if it had been stored and worked fine before. They fixed my problem instantly after I wasted alot of time trying to get things to work.
    Hope this helps.
