Credit cards do not run out of money; you can only reach your credit limit. To increase it, contact the card issuer.
You need to provide a viable payment method.
Oops I meant debit because I had one of visa temporary ones. Sorry.
You can create a new Apple ID without a credit card. To do that read:
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
I do not recommend that though, because that Apple ID will remain forever separate from your existing Apple ID, and they cannot be combined or merged.
I had thought of that but would that not erase everything from this one?
No, nothing will be erased. If you owe money to the iTunes Store, though, then you won't be able to download or update anything purchased through that previous Apple ID until you clear that debt. And you would need to use that old Apple ID for any updates and you may still run into the same problem. Have you tried just setting your payment method to "none"?
Regards.

No.
You eventually need to resolve the payment method though, and if you owe Apple money the "none" option (for your existing Apple ID) will not appear.
You mentioned that you don't want to add another card because of safety concerns. Are you willing to discuss them? Perhaps there is another solution.
Purchase and redeem an iTunes gift card
I'll see because there is no "none" option but i don't know where I owe money to apple because I only used what was on my card.
Sometimes Apple will also a purchase to go through and then find out that you did not have enough money in your credit card.
You can contact iTunes and ask
