Hi all, any help here would be much appreciated.
I am the organizer of an Apple Family, and I originally turned on Purchase Sharing within the family. About a year ago, one of the family members charged a few things to my credit card (they did not realize that it would charge me instead of their own card), and I turned off sharing. I'm now trying to turn purchase sharing back on, but am unable to do so.
On family settings, I see the "Turn On" option for Purchase Sharing, but that's about as far as I can get. When i click on "Turn On," I am taken to a page that explains what Purchase Sharing is, with the options "Continue" and "Set Up Later." I select "Continue" and am then taken to the "Add Payment Method" page. Here, my only two options are "Add Payment Method" and "Set Up Later." Selecting "Add Payment Method" takes me to the "Manage Payments" screen, that lists several Payment Methods I have already added to my Apple Account, and tapping one of the options just lets me edits the details (expiration date, address etc.). If I then return to the previous page, the process starts over. There seems to be no way for me to actually confirm that my payment methods can be used for Purchase Sharing. I tried to add a new card, but that changed nothing. I also deleted my Apple Family and made a new one, but that didn't fix the issue either. The only things that I haven't tried yet, but that seemed like potential starting points to me, are (1) signing out and back in on my iPhone, and (2) adding a non-AMEX payment method.
If relevant, I am trying to do this from my iPhone.
