Funds still not accessible from old Apple ID account

My $50.00 from my old Apple ID is still not accessible how do I transfer it to my new Apple ID. Apple says that it will just sit there in air and that it won’t be accessible, how true is that?

iPhone 8 Plus, 13

You can't transfer funds from one ID to another ID. Unless Apple will transfer the funds for you, the funds will remain attached to the old ID. You can try setting up Family Sharing between the IDs if you want to be able to share purchases made with the IDs. You could then spend the money from the old ID on purchases you want in the new ID.
