How do you download apps without a credit card in the Netherlands?

Purchase an iTunes gift card either on-line or at a local store. Then redeem the gift card on your computer for use in the App Store.

I am in the same situation since ages... 'None' doesn't appear in the payment method list... 😠

Doesn't appear when ? You won't get 'none' when trying to download something, you need to just log into the account and see if it shows as an option : Change or remove your Apple ID payment information - Apple Support

It is been 2 years I am trying to find an option for this issue as I moved from France to The Netherlands, so I read all your Support page already 😉

I have a French credit card linked to my AppleID, I am using the French App Store for now.

When I try to switch store, I only have the choice between Visa / MasterCard / Amex, but I only own a Dutch debit card so I will apparently never be able to download any Dutch app because of this 'limitation'.

so I read all your Support page already

We are fellow users on these forums, you aren't talking to iTunes Support nor Apple on here.

When you change countries : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information? - Apple Support

When you change the country or region of an existing Apple ID, you must provide a payment method and update your billing options. If you want to remove your payment method after you change the country or region, you can change your payment information to None.

What happens when you try your Dutch debit card (and is it a Visa, MasterCard or Amex) ? If it's not accepted, and it's registered to the same name and Dutch address as you are trying to change to, you could try contacting iTunes Support and see if there is anything that they can do to remove the card requirement for you : https://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html

You can't use the France store whilst in the Netherlands (you have to be in a country to use its store, that is part of the store's terms), when Apple detect it they are likely to permanently disable the account.

Oh okay, thank you very much then for your time 🙂

I will try to enter again my debit card info even if it is a Maestro one.

I am using the French Store in The Netherlands and never get any trouble yet !

A Maestro debit card probably won't work if you only have the Visa, MasterCard, Amex options showing.

You are violating the store's terms (terms that you agreed to abide by) - Apple can, and do, permanently disable accounts for that

I will contact iTunes Support again then to see if they can help me on that...

Let's hope they won't disable my account, I really have no choice but keeping using the French store as I can log it to the Dutch one.

Thanks again for your time!
