How can I change my payment method.

I came from Philippines and I am using Visa for my icloud payments. Recently I transfer here In Saipan USA and I change my payment method to my US master card and my icloud payments are declined. I want to add again my Visa from Philippines but I cannot get through.

At this time, all my apple billings are still declined

Unless your Philippines card is billed to you at your address in the USA you can't use it.


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.


Make sure this is a payment method that you can use with your Apple ID; click here --> https://support.apple.com/HT202631 For most people this means a card from the same country as the store you are using.


If you still have problems Click here --> https://support.apple.com/choose-country-region/Select your country, then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
