Hello Tess2019,
Just to clarify, is this only happening with apps you attempt to redownload, or are you experiencing an issue downloading new apps as well? Do you receive the same error when connected to another network? That information will help us proceed.

You might need to have a valid payment method on file, even if the app that you want to download is free.

3. Resolve a problem with your payment method

4. Prioritize the download
From the Home Screen, touch and hold the app. From the menu that appears, choose Prioritize Download.
5. Restart your device

In my case, the app I offloaded would not download since I didn’t have the newest iOS. I was fortunate that I could download an older app version from the App Store.
Unable to reinstall apps after offloading
