    Unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating an account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

    then credit card details will need to be entered onto an account before it can be used to download any item from the store.

     

    If you are being prompted to review the account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054

     

    If not then you will either need to enter credit card details (you should be able to remove it after entering it) or create a new account, and follow the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it. If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on that account first e.g. by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your phone, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com
