apple stores not accepting my payment :(

[welshboy]

I want an iphone but its not accepting my payment method for some reason.

Ive got visa and my billing address is fine. and theres cleared money.

anyone else had this problem?

just sais "payment method declined" yet my card is fine ive just tried it in cashmachine and balance etc is fine.

Can only think that its your banks security protection service stopping it. I've had payments blocked before and had to ring them up to tell them to allow it.

Quite often an account will have a limit on what you can spend in one transaction. Call your bank and see if you need to raise it.
