There is a billing problem with a previous purchase. Please update your payment method. Because of this i cant download even free apps
I cant dowload even free apps. It's asking for the card details and then Your payment method was declined. Please enter another payment method appears
I had this same problem. Even though I updated and even changed CC's in my iTunes account and there was no balance on my account....THERE WAS A BALANCE on my daughter's account that through the family network was tied to mine as the family manager. Even though all the accounts are paid by my card, I can't see or clear balances on other family members.
My daughter had to go into her account and enter (or have me enter) the 3 digit security code from the current (updated) cc to clear her balance and cease this darned error.
Now we can updated, download, and so on. What a pain.
In short if you are getting this error, especially if you CC information recently changed (expiration, number, sec code)... make sure none of your connected family members made any purchases between the time the CC info changed and you updated the iTunes account. If they did...THEY MUST CLEAR THEIR BALANCE to clear the error message.
Good luck.

I get this sometimes with the card I've been using for years. I'm not sure what happens but usually, all I have to do is go into iTunes and edit my card info. Instead of changing anything, I just save the changes even though I didn't make any and then iTunes will then automatically resubmit the over due charges.
This same thing also happens with SiriusXM account and at least once ir twice a year, I get a past due notice in the mail. Frustrating even though there is nothing wrong with my card. -

So when I go to update my apps and/or purchase them, a pop up comes up saying 'There is a billing problem with a previous purchase. Tap continue and sign in to view billing information.' So I press continue and sign in, then it goes to my 'Payment Method' page. In red writing below, it says 'There is a billing problem with a previous purchase. Please enter another payment method.' Because I used a MasterCard for my last purchase, it won't let me change it. I redeemed my account from an Itunes gift card to $20 but I cannot use it as it doesn't give me the option of using it. My only billing options are either a Visa Card, MasterCard or Amex Card. Please help me if possible!!!
same here. i was using a visa card ...now i can't because of this "error". my account is not empty, info is correct, don;t understand why this is happening. Two days ago it was working fine, then i wanted to update an app, and this stuff begins.

I have a £50 gift voucher and I tried to buy something with it, but it tells me there was a billing problem with a previous purchase and makes me put in my debit card details. My debit card has no money atm, can't I just pay with my voucher for the things that have a billing problem? I tried to put my voucher code in again but it won't let me do that.
If the amount of the purchase is close to $21.07, then you need to take into account taxes may be added.
If you go beyond the credit from a gift card the balance will be billed to your credit card account. -

I tried downloading an app as per usual and the message 'There is a billing problem with a previous purchase. Please update your payment info' appeared. Everything in regards to my payment info is correct. What's going on? Help me!
Is there any sort of error message on the payment details screen on your account ? If not then if you enter your card's security code does that trigger an error message ?
