- Check if your region settings changed. If you recently changed regions for an existing Apple ID, you must provide a payment method and update your billing information. After doing so, you can remove your credit card from the account again.
- Check if you have a balance due. You cannot set a payment method as none if the Apple ID has a balance due. Update your payment information so that the balance can be paid, and then you can set your payment method to "None".
