iTunes Store: My credit card's security code or zip code does not match my bank's records

Otherwise contact iTunes.

Contact iTunes

I would try to verify your billing address with your bank. There are sometimes a "billing address" and "mailing address" associated with bank accounts. From my experience from previous jobs, the correct zip code and CVC code on the back is what is verifiable information.

Apple does use a really strict security feature, and some banks will flag a transaction due to an amount or flucuation of multiple sales going through the same card in a single day. I used to handle card transactions all the time and would see this happen at least five times a day. It usually takes talking to the bank to see what transaction codes they are getting with your card and they can assist you from there. It can be frustrating at times, but this is pure measures for fraud prevention.

In my case master card is also not accepted !!

Situation

Ipad iPhone user

Valid card . Valid today . Used in App Store befor . Used in other brick and

Mortar stores before . Valid till date. Expiry not until 2014

Used only one card , this master card on iTunes and App Store

Suddenly apps won't update !!

I think it is a country selection problem

Check on iTunes Store . County seems ok

Then read around

I read around KB .... forums etc etc like mad and some KB article says check settings - I tunes - apple account - view account - payment info etc

So I do that

iPhone - settings - iTunes ... - click / tap in apple I'd - click / tap on view account - enter password - see payment info

Oops !! All in red and aap stores says payment method NOT accepted

I re type card number .... Validity ... Secret code ... Address etc still I keep getting a reply that the payment method is not accepted !!

Why ??

Not a train smash but getting very annoying !!!

Serious issue ... I see tons of posts on this all over

*** aaple are you Listening ???****

Hi,

Im at my wits end now trying to register my debit card, it keeps coming up DECLINED!!!! Can somebody help me on this please??????????

The problem is between Apple and the bank. I have been trying for ages to get it registered (even tho its the same card ive bought apps with for over a year) and decied to contact my bank. they have said that the fraud prevention team are rejecting it, then they cancelled my card! i asked the woman on the phone if i try it with my new card when it arrives will it do the same, she said no, everything will be fine. so i tried it with my wifes card. guess what?? declined! and her card cancelled now too! either apple are not following some protocol that the banks need, or maybe its the bank being a #*#*! i bank with the Royal Bank of Scotland, anyone else with them thats having this problem?

The card needs to be a credit card, not a debit card. And the card address must be in the same country as the app store you are using.

Oh I've got a debit card, but I swear it used to work 😐 Thanks for the help anyway

It may have worked in the past, but Apple has changed what is now accepted

for payment. See the links from Texas Mac Man above your post.
