"Request for permanent deletion of Apple ID account"

Hi, I made the biggest mistake tonight. I made a request for a permanent deletion of my Apple ID account for the reason that the payment method I used there is not accessible anymore. I thought that making a new account would make my new payment method useable. But minutes after I am done requesting for a permanent deletion of my account, I then remembered my files, photos, music, I have in my old account. The question is, is there any way possible to un-request the permanent deletion of my Apple ID account?

From the article below.

What happens if I change my mind after I have requested that my account be deleted?

While your request is being processed, you can contact Apple Support with the unique alphanumeric access code you received, and we’ll help you cancel your request. After your account is deleted, Apple can't cancel the request, reopen your account, or restore your data.
