Hi aniah178,
welcome to the Apple (user-to-user) Community.
Re: "Subscription and purchase is not helping with refund"
Seems a free trial needs to be cancelled at least 24 hours before it expires in order to not be charged for the next month.
You may still need to cancel the subscription to Apple Music, so you don't receive more charges:

Else: You could check in the music app to see if you can cancel there
or
What to do: If you want to cancel a subscription from Apple – Apple Support
Learn about special circumstances in some countries and regions.
