We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
Each time that you change card details on your account a small temporary store holding charge (i.e. $1) may be applied to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.

How did you create the account ? Unless you followed, exactly, the instructions on the HT2534 page that you posted from when creating an account then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.

So I buy an ITUNES $25 music card but I am still charged on my credit card?

Why am I still charged on my credit card when I buy a redeemable $25 card?
I would think the music card would be used before the credit card.
This is not right and needs to be changed or I will cancel my account with ITUNES and will cancel my IPHONE subscription.
Since there are prepay itunes card I find it a rip off that a credit card was used and in the sign up it says the credit card is only used to verify AGE ONLY.
So by going behind my back and putting purcahses using the credit card is not very honest when in fact I used a $25 itunes card.
APPLE FIX THIS FLAW ASAP!!!!!!! If you can't fix this then you will be hearing from lawyers.

Look if you can't give me proper info then keep quiet.
I still work at a helpdesk and so far you have been the worst in giving misinformation.

1) Your post is very insulting. You could have told me that deleting your credit card did not work. You did not have to insult me.
2) Unless apple changed their requirements, you can Zero out your credit card information - after it has cleared your account and been removed. However I don not work for Apple and if they changed that requirement they would not have told that to me.
3) I have given you a perfectly working alternative that does work. If you refuse to believe me, that is your issue. I don't have to take your insults and you have no right to insult me.

Howdy GaryFC,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities.
If you have a payment source associated with your Apple ID, it needs to be a vaild form of payment. To troubleshoot issues with your payment type being declined, please follow the steps below.
In most cases, this issue is caused by a formatting error in the billing address that you have provided. You can correct the issue by verifying that the information you have provided is correct, or by changing the format of your address to match the format that your credit card company has on file.
You can verify and/or modify your billing address by following these instructions:
Open iTunes. If you are signed in to iTunes, skip to step 4.
Note: Verify that you are signed in to the correct iTunes account. If you are unsure which account you're signed into, choose Store > Sign Out and proceed to step 2.
Choose Store > Sign In.
Enter your account name and password, then click the Sign In button.
Choose Store > View My Account.
Click the Edit Payment Information button.
In the Payment Method section, choose None.
Click the Done button at the bottom of the page.
Click the Edit Payment Information button again.
Enter your billing address exactly as it appears on your credit card statement.
Select your credit card type in the Payment Method section.
Enter your credit card information, your card's security code, and the expiration date.
Click the Done button at the bottom of the page.
If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.

You don't, if you follow the instructions on this page when creating an account (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) then you don't have to give credit card details, you will get a 'none' option on the payments screen : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

An Apple ID is free and you will be charged nothing for creating it.
To create an Apple ID without a credit card read Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Step 3 is important, no matter whether you do this on a Mac or an iPad / iPhone:
Important: Before proceeding to the next step, you must download and install a free application. ...
Important: Before proceeding to the next step, you must download and install the free application by tapping Free followed by tapping Install App. ...
To summarize, you must first download a free app from the App Store. When you are asked to sign in with your Apple ID, select "Create new account". Accept the terms and conditions checkbox, then click Continue. After you enter all the requested personal data, click Continue.
When you are asked to select a payment method, select "None".
That's all there is to it.
