And you may be right. But I’m not the only one such a thing has happened to. For all I know, it could be the card issuer themselves who are creating the problem. ‘Funds’ aren’t the issue, though. I’m sure it’d be just a temporary thing, that’ll be solved the next time I go at it.

Hi, With all due respect, still after reading this article I see nothing that would indicate why one wouldn’t be able to advance through the card entry process. The authorization hold is common but wouldn’t prevent any purchases or verifications from taking place; nor did it mention a time period during which the card or the associated account couldn’t be used to download or purchase apps. I’m glad you got it sorted by using another method still the mystery remains why that card wouldn’t easily activate and integrate itself into the account. I’m glad such has never befallen me and my Apple ID thus far.

It asks me for the CVV and I fill that in. (VoiceOver reads it back, correctly.) It then goes on to ask for the expiry date, which by default was set to 01/18. (It’s not then, and I was able to change that to the correct mm/yy with the Rotor in the pop-ups.) I think I’ll come back here with an Apple Support link, that seems to explain what happened (and possibly, why), in case somebody else has this issue in the future. It’s an Apple or iTunes verification thing. – At least as far as that goes. In the meantime, folk can google ‘credit card number does not match credit card type’. (You’d think it’d just mean that you’d chosen the wrong issuer for the card number; but it isn’t, or isn’t only, that.) From: Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Sunday, January 14, 2018 9:00 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Message: Credit card number does not match credit card type. Are you sure it’s not just asking to verify by requesting your credit card’s 3-digit card verification code (on the back of the card)? If I have a couple of cards registered and if I switch from one to another is usually comes up and wants me to do that. The screen looks like it has everything, but the field for the card verification code is blank, I double tap on it, enter the code and everything is fine after that.

The Bank issued me with a new card, a MasterCard, when the change was made. (The card also has a number beginning with 54. The change was also reflected in my iTunes, as I provided the info there at that time (in 2016). I rather think that it’s related to my (earlier today) change from password entry to Touch ID as the means for verifying a download or purchase. Had I not wanted to download something today, I might not have encountered the issue. Fortunately, I do have an alternative that did work for the verification.

The first 4 digits of your card number represent the card type, i. e. Mastercard, Visa, or Discover. When your bank changed card types, they should have issued you a new card with a different number. That's the problem, and you will need to notify your bank. Andy ----- Original Message ----- >From: Flor Lynch To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, January 14, 2018 7:19 AM Subject: Message: Credit card number does not match credit card type. Hi, I’m attempting to set up my payment info in the App Store for my first free download of an app on this iPhone 6s, having verified my fingerprint ID and entered my password when asked. (This is for a free app, but ‘verification is required’ probably as it’s my first download on this iPhone from the App Store. The 16-digit Credit card number, CVV, and Expiry Date, are correct. So, what does, “Credit card number does not match credit card type” mean? Does it mean, that I must contact my card provider to proceed anyway? Or, does it mean something else? Or does it signify something else entirely unrelated? Or, does it mean that I should simply try PayPal and hope it works? (When I/my Bank changed from Visa to MasterCard, iTunes/App Store had accepted that in the past and I made purchases using the latter card type.) Any good ideas?
