one year free apple + TV isn't free

I just noticed that I'm being charged $6.99 from the beginning.

You would be charged for the subscription exactly as described in the initial subscription confirmation email.

However, there could be a temporary authorization hold on your card, if you haven’t used that card with your Apple ID account before. This hold is not a fee.

should I wait

Wait for what exactly? You have the confirmation of signing up for this service and getting a subscription.

is this really free ???

Free for 1 year, yes. You will get monthly charges in one year, if you are still subscribed by that time. If you cancel during the trial period, the subscription will end immediately. If after one year, you decide not to continue, then you should cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date (pro tip: mark your electronic calendar with an alert for March 19, 2021).

$59.70

That is a lot, and you should be suspicious and verify. This would not be for Apple TV+, but for something else.

If you see apple.com/bill, itunes.com/bill, or an unfamiliar charge on your statement - Apple Support

See your purchase history for the App Store or iTunes Store - Apple Support

View, change, or cancel your subscriptions - Apple Support

You would have claimed the offer on the iPad, via the TV app and that is where you would use the service. You can scroll down to Apple TV Channels section and select the Apple TV Plus icon to see all available content.

In order to use it on your TV you would need a streaming device (Apple TV 3rd gen or later , Roku, Firestick) or a Smart TV that supports the TV app

Apple TV app - Devices - Apple (CA)

I just received an email for a free year of Apple TV given a new Apple purchase but the link just takes me to a free 7 day trial. Is there an email I can contact to get this offer to work?

You are advised to contact Apple Support to assist you with the redeeming of the offer. They may supply activation codes, after some verification.

Sorry I meant to say wait because I got charged on my credit card which I guess is the hold $59.70 others were talking about . My cc company declined it because it looked suspicious and considered it possible fraud that’s why I came here

I also bought a iphone 11pro got an email last week of march trying to do what is said still unable to get the access to the 1 year free apple TV. I wanted to subscribe after seeing the email so as to understand apple as it is my first apple cellular device.

A phone doesn't connect from Youtube. That is done using a wireless streaming protocol, most likely your TV has built in chromecast. That will not work for this. You would have to use Apple's airplay protocol, which requires an Apple TV (3rd gen or later), or compatible TV. Otherwise, you would use a streaming device or TV that supports the TV app (in which case you would stream directly). All compatible 3rd party devices are listed in the link I provided above.

So then what about from the I pad and I phone. How it will work from them the I pad is 7 gen the new one out and the I phone is 8 plus will it work with that I have movies I paid for so how to watch tv on that

As I previously stated, you have already claimed the offer on the iPad using the TV app. That app is where you use the service, scroll down to the Apple TV channels section and select the Apple TV Plus icon. You can also use it on your iPhone 8 plus, as long as it is up to date and signed in using the same Apple ID

The TV app will also give access to previously purchased movies, via the library section. It will offer them from the cloud, as long as they are still available in the store, as well as any titles downloaded to the device.

I just received an email for a free year of Apple TV given a new Apple purchase but the link just takes me to a free 7 day trial. Is there an email I can contact to get this offer to work?

this is the email I received should I wait or is this really free ???

Was the phone purchased recently? If it had been done previously then be aware the offer is only valid for 3 months after activation.

I just got my I pad today and was told I have 1 year of Apple TV free but I can’t seem to get anything on it or connect to it so I’m not sure what to do can anyone help me in this

Is the issue with claiming the offer or with using the service?
