“ There is a billing problem with a family member's previous purchase”

I keep getting this message after I’d had a bad debit card on my account. I’ve since gotten it replaced, but I am unable to change my payment method. I am not in a Family Sharing group, and now that I have this message, I can’t change my payment information. Please help! I can’t update or install any apps that I need for work!

iPhone 14, iOS 16
