Change iTunes Store country without a credit card

Hi,


- I have a Philippine iTunes store account WITHOUT a credit card on file, which I've been using for a few years now

- I wanted to buy an app but I don't have a credit card so I used my dad's credit card (with his permission of course). His billing address is in QATAR, so I changed my iTunes store account to QATAR.

- I successfully bought the app and want to change the country to Philippines again

- When I do, it's asking for a credit card, which I don't have. The "none" option is gone


Is there a way to change it back? I really need to because the Qatar app store is crappy (lots of missing apps).


Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

To change the country associated with your iTunes Store account, you must provide a payment method, such as a credit or debit card associated with a valid billing address in the new country. Also, in which country do you reside? In accordance with the iTunes Store Terms of Sale, items on any particular country's iTunes Store are available only for distribution to customers who reside in that country and use a credit or debit card issued in and for that country.


You can review the iTunes Store Terms of Sale for more information:
