why doesn't the region change on my phone?

I want to change the region with my app store, because my MasterCard card has been stolen and I want to change the data around the region for a new card

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 13

You need a zero account balance and you need to cancel all your subscriptions. If you have cancelled all subscriptions, but some haven’t expired, contact iTunes Support. You need a credit card issued by a bank in the country the store is in, and you need a billing address in that country. If you have an account balance, either buy something more expensive and pay the balance with a credit card or contact iTunes Support and ask them to zero balance your account.


Purchases - View, change, or cancel your subscriptions.
