Cannot download free apps

Could anyone explain to me why Apple Store refuses to download FREE apps without trying to send a payment to my credit card? Every time I try to download an app it requires additional verification and is requesting me to update billing information.


This is extremely frustrating and irritating.

iTunes and the App Store require a valid payment method even for free downloads. How Apple uses your payment information - Apple Support
