Your payment was declined by your financial institution

Hello,

I have had a subscription for several years. My credit card has expired and I received a new one from the same bank.
When I try to pay with the new card I get the message "Your payment was declined by your financial institution".

my banker tells me that they have received (and accepted) the requests to pay 0€ (these requests occur when I enter the card number in order to validate the entry) but they have not received any payment (of 1300€) requests from azure.

what to do ? I'm afraid that azure services cut off.

    Hi @ttu Thank you for reaching out to us. Happy to assist!

    From the details provided, I learnt that your old credit card expired and you received a new one that you added to your Azure account. However, the payments are declined.

    First thing, can you confirm that the new credit card is reflecting in the portal and made it the default payment card?
    Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/manage/change-credit-card

    If yes, and still facing issues with payments, highly recommend contacting Azure billing and subscription management team by raising a support request to look into this issue. The ticket enables you to work closely with the support engineers and get a quick resolution to your issue.

    Here is the link - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-portal/supportability/how-to-create-azure-support-request to create support case.

    @SadiqhAhmed-MSFT We have the same problem!

    I checked with my financial institution, and they told me, that the 0€ payment Microsoft is doing to proof the credit card is lower than the actual monthly payment that need to be done. Because of this the payment is declined by the financial institution. This is standard procedure for the Mastercard 3-D Secure.
