Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

iCloud rejects the credit cards I am trying to use to increase my iCloud storage.

What sort of rules or other restraints does iCloud inforce that would reject a valid Credit Card #?


my iTunes credit card was hacked I need to enter a new credit card to purchase more iCloud Storage. I have tried TWO existing credit cards and they were both rejected. I don't know why

Review this document about what to do "If your payment method is declined in the App Store or iTunes Store" Click here --> https://support.apple.com/HT203005 It mostly just suggests you make sure your payment method is up to date or to try a different one. Apple is probably just checking with the system linking to your financial institution and asking if the payment method is valid. The system is providing a negative response. Make sure the name and address are entered exactly as it appears on your financial institution bills and that the 3 digit CVV is correct. Check with your financial institution about the status of your card.
