    Wait a couple of weeks, then try to order ONE item at a time, do not order anything else again until it is delivered. Your repeated placing of multiple orders, cancelling them and placing them again has probably triggered multiple fraud flags.

    Make sure you do just wait and see.  Chasing or cancelling this order will only add to the impression that you're a suspicious customer.

    Or, you wait a month before trying again. Your impatience has caused this issue, you will likely need to apply some patience to resolve the issue.

    Just wait and see.  And if this order doesn't go through, leave it a few weeks and try again.

    If you still have problems after a few weeks, your best bet is to order what Apple will let you order and sell it on, to limit your losses.

    How did you end up with so much credit in the first place?

    Seems to be posted all over the internet. https://forums.digitalspy.com/discussion/2467531/apple-keeps-cancelling-my-orders#latest

    I understand about the OCD, my friend has the same. Once she gets a thought in her head she can’t stop repeating the action (such as doing the same thing multiple times in the hope of getting a different outcome) or asks the same question over and over. This all leads to poor decision making and situations that became complicated.  I know how upsetting it is for her as she knows she is doing it but can’t stop. 

    I’m sorry that some of the people on Macrumours weren’t very understanding. It must be difficult for you and as you say in your eyes you feel you’ve lost money.
