Either add a payment method that is valid or use a Gift Card to pay for the pending charge. The current payment would most likely be determined that it is no longer valid after a repeated attempt to charge it has failed.

If a message says 'billing problem with previous purchase' or 'verification required' - Apple Support


It is still the case that a valid payment method may still need to be on file even after the pending charge has been resolved. You can see that in step 2 here:

  • You might need to have a valid payment method on file, even if the app that you want to download is free.

If you can’t download or update apps on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
