Postcode not valid for Apple ID

"Postcode not valid for Apple ID: I setup an Apple ID about 17 years ago but I haven’t used an apple product in about 10 years. I recently got an iPad but when I try to install an app I get: 'this Apple ID hasn’t been used in the iTunes Store. Tap review to sign in, then review your account information'"

Where to Go from here:

Contact Apple Support:

No one here has access to your information (and that is a good thing, BTW). So, what you need to do is contact Apple Support, yourself. They will see this from their side, and with run you through the fix.

Apple Support Contact Info:

• Contact Us - Choose Locations
• Proceed from there as necessary

Note: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due to lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)

User Tips:

Screenshare with the Apple Rep:

To easily troubleshooting this over the phone with the Apple Rep screenshare the camera of your iPhone and that of your Mac. Ask a friend, or family member if you may use their phone, if you do not have one handy. That will allow the Apple Rep to see this first hand from your perspective.

"Postcode not valid for Apple ID: I’ve tried leaving it blank, enter four zeros, enter six zeros, the word “none” but none of this works. Apple recommends asking here rather than contacting them directly. Any other ideas?"
