My app account has been disabled twice, what should I do? how to restore?

I have already contacted the support service once, they called me and activated the account, and about 2 weeks later they deactivated it again. I don't understand why. because I didn't connect any subscriptions and didn't do anything like that

iPhone 13, iOS 16

You'll need to contact support again. If your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes, it isn’t something that you can fix yourself. You will need to contact Apple Support. The following Apple article includes a link that you can use to contact Apple Support: If a message says 'Your account has been disabled in the App Store and iTunes' - Apple Support


This is primarily a user-to-user support forum; other Apple users like you.

Yes, about 2 months ago, that means there is a problem with your payment method on your account.


See -> Add a payment method to your Apple ID

Add a payment method to your Apple ID – Apple Support (UK)

  • If you want to change your card, you need to add first the new card, then remove the old card.
  • or if you use your Apple Account balance, you need to set your Apple Account balance as your default payment.

fyi: Not all credit & debit cards seem to work with App Store / iTunes Store, try a different one, or preferably a credit card. If your card is not accepted as a paymenf method, you need to contact your bank.

 

If you have followed all the steps and instructions and if you still need help, get support from Apple directly -> Get Support or call Apple in your region see -> Contact Apple for support and service or check -> here for more support and assistance.
