If you can't make purchases or update apps, including free apps, you may need to have a valid payment method on file, even if the app you want to download is free.

fyi: Not all credit & debit cards seem to work with App Store / iTunes Store, try a different one, or preferably a credit card. If your card is not accepted as a paymenf method, you need to contact your bank.
