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

I want to delete my card that is that was automatically add to the apple account. I did not authorize the card to be used on this account. I am having trouble deleting the card I do not wish to use card now or in the future for the App Store.

I want to delete my card that is on file for purchases on my phone. I did not give authorization to have it on file.

You have added your card, linked to your Apple ID as a payment method.

***** Or someone else has access to your Apple device(s), Apple account, etc.


You can remove that card, but you need to have a payment method on file, If you want to make purchases or update/ download apps, including free apps.
