Reject Payment Notification

Two hours ago we received 42 emails from Apple with the following content:

iTunes Connect

Dear .....,

The routing number you provided for the bank account ending in ..... is no longer correct. To receive payments, update your bank info with a valid account and routing number.

If you have any questions, use the Contact Us module on iTunes Connect.

We have been receiving payments to this account for 5 years and nothing has changed with the account. The account is valid and all details are correct.

And this is displayed under “Payments and Financial Reports”:

Payment Rejected

The routing number you provided for the bank account ending in .... is no longer correct. To receive payments, update your bank info with a valid account and routing number.

A lovely surprise for Christmas.

I believe that our bank had maintenance today and the payment may have been rejected due to a technical error. When logging into online banking, it says that online banking will not be available tonight due to maintenance.

Is there a way to trigger the payout to the same account again on Monday? Or will it only be attempted once we have added a new account? Unfortunately, there is no clear information about this.

I’m getting exactly the same notifications since today. more than 60 today. Funny thing: on AppStore Connect my payment information has status active / valid. The emails are addressed from ITunes Store - but there I never published any app / content. looks to me like technical apple problems or Apple was hacked?!?

Our payment information is also marked as active in the business data. The message is in the “Payments and Financial Reports” section.
