Payment

I received an email that said there may be a problem with my Apple subscription payment method, today. Next billing cycle is 9 Oct. I recently changed my Visa card, and just double checked and verified that the new card is loaded. Am I probably fine and the system is just not synched yet?

You are probably fine. As for the email, there is the remote possibility it is phishing.


Scams (e-mail, text messages, and phone calls) are getting very good at closely imitating true Apple communications. Always be cautious. Here are some guidelines:

Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - https://support.apple.com/HT204759


If you are uncertain about a message and a resource provided in that message, do not click on any links. Try to independently verify the resource by going to a support page on apple.com and use that to contact Apple or to verify the service the message is telling you to use.
