"There is a problem with a family member's previous purchase"

I recently had this issue for my younger brother on our family sharing account. Shortly after removing him from my family account, I signed him out of the App Store account, it fixed the billing issue. No need to buy iTunes gift cards!

“There is a billing problem with a family member’s previous purchase, Ask the family organizer… etc” I’m trying to download a new app via Apple App Store. I’m being told that I can’t due to a billing problem, I have changed both my billing and shipping address. I have never been apart of a family sharing.
