icloud payment

Hello! I couldn't pay icloud 4 days ago, yesterday I added money to my apple id, but icloud is still not paid, iCloud settings says "payment update 21.08ā€ and in icloud purchase history "in pendingā€. I want to make sure my icloud will be safe.

When will the July payment? Or there will be a double payment (for July and August) on 21.08? ..Let me know, please

Thank you and have a nice day!

iPhone 11

Check again to day or tomorrow, if it is still pending.

If you have an iCloud subscription, you will receive a monthly bill from Apple, check your email box.

Pending purchases indicate a purchase that was unable to be charged successfully to your valid payment method on file or AppleĀ Account balance, as such you are responsible for that purchase, and must allow it to successfully complete before anything else can be done.


If you can't make purchases or update apps, including free apps, you may need to have a valid payment method on file, even if the app you want to download is free.
