Unable to update my payment method


I had an issue with my payment card, it was compromised. So I went to my financial institution and a new card was issued to me. Then I tried updating my payment method but I keep getting the error message of being declined and when I try editing or removing the former card details and it isn’t going out it keeps saying I have an existing payment billed to the card.

iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14

- If you are updating an old card and have ongoing subscriptions you may need to first add the new card and make it the primary payment method before deleting the old card.
