Firstly, you've bought online storage on iCloud which your phone can access (as can all your other devices), the purpose being to sync data between your devices. You have not bought storage actually on your phone - that cannot be increased.


Secondly, iCloud storage is a subscription - effectively you are renting the storage - so it's an ongoing charge, not a single one. If you don't want to go on paying for it you can reduce the storage to the free 5GB level effective at the end of your current subscription month:


Downgrade your iCloud storage - Apple Support


Don't leave it to the last day to do it. If you do it now it won't be downgraded until the end of the subscription month. You are not due for a refund on this.
