I've got a problems with some few deferred payments not getting finalized. It happens in an app that's live for about 3 years. The problem is very rare and we're unable to reproduce it.
Example: a child want's to get an in app purchase and uses "ask to buy" to ask her parents. Her parents confirm the purchase and can see, that their credit card was billed. The state of the transaction initially is deferred (correct) but never gets updated to purchased or failed (in this case, as the IAP was bought, it should have changed to purchased).
Clicking restore purchases didn't change anything. Nor did reinstalling the app.
It seems, that the transaction never gets finalized and will stay in deferred forever.
Is this a known problem and are there any known fixes?
