iCloud+ payment

I have received an email stating £0.79 which is due to be charged on 09/03/2022 for iCloud+ there is a problem with my payment information.

Nothing has changed from last month - could this be a hoax email?

This is a Scam:

If is is an eMail, then it is a phishing scam. If it is in your bank account, then it may be a mishap, on whomever's part. View these two links to determine which is the case...


So, to fix this...

Contact Apple Support:

For Financial Assistance, contact Apple Support. These are user-to-user forums. We are not Apple.  Apple barely reads these site on their own time, as it is. As you may suspect, no one here would know the answer to this. So, contact Apple Support. The'll see what has occurred, and will run you through the fix. Here is the information for contacting Apple Support:

Apple Phone Support:

  • Contact Us - Choose Locations
  • Proceed from there as Necessary
  • Why the Wait: Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due do lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)
