Hey there Drpepperking,


Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We're happy to provide some assistance.


There could be a variety of reasons why you see this error. We recommend following the steps outlined in this relevant resource if you haven't done so already:


If your payment method is declined in the App Store or iTunes Store


If a payment method can’t be charged
Use your device to check your payment information. You might see red text that explains why the payment method can't be charged.
iPhone showing three payment methods, with one credit card marked as failed.

If your card was declined, add a new payment method or update your payment information. You can add multiple payment methods to your Apple ID.
Your payment method will be charged for the unpaid balance. Then you can make other purchases and update your apps, including free apps.
If you use Family Sharing and Purchase Sharing is turned on, the family organizer must update their billing information or add a new payment method. If you're not the family organizer, you can't change the payment method.
See which payment methods are accepted in your country or region.

If you continue to experience issues, please contact Apple directly to investigate:

We hope this helps.


Have a great day!
