How to find out more about something that you do not see in your purchase history is included in my earlier response. Apple does not do email support unless it is something they ask for. You contact them using the methods I indicate, but your problem resolution will likely be a lot faster if you work your way through the steps I indicated. If you are a member of Family Sharing then it is quite possible this was a purchase made by somebody else. At the other extreme, you may be the subject of card fraud, but I would make very certain it isn't a valid charge before blocking payment on your card or else you may find yourself having to deal with a disabled account too.

The support article "If you see 'apple.com/bill' on your billing statement" explains how you can check your iTunes and App Stores purchase history, cancel subscriptions, and track possible sources of unrecognized Apple charges you may see on a bill. These may be purchases by family members if you are an organizer of a Family Sharing group, or possibly a second Apple ID you use. The article also provides a specific link for contacting Apple if you cannot trace the source of charges. Click on this link to read this article ➞ https://support.apple.com/HT201382 If you use Apple Card you may find this document helpful too: 'If you see an Apple Services charge you don't recognize on your Apple Card' ➞ https://support.apple.com/HT210618


Other possibilities to consider (not all may apply in your situation):

- Unanticipated amounts may be grouped charges ( https://support.apple.com/HT201359 ).

- Purchases can be made with your ID if your Apple ID is compromised (what to do ➞ https://support.apple.com/HT204145 ) or somebody else has access to your device (require purchase password ➞ https://support.apple.com/HT204030 ).

- If you only see a charge in emails or texts that are not official Apple receipts, it is likely phishing attempts ( https://support.apple.com/HT204759 ).

- If you are absolutely certain neither you, nor Apple, nor a Family Sharing member can account for a charge and it ONLY appears on a bill for a charge card you alone control, you may have been the victim of card fraud. Contact your financial institution.

- Small amounts of ~$1 may be an authorization hold that will be refunded (pending charge ➞ https://support.apple.com/HT201292 ).

The payment method for Family Sharing is automatic:


1. If anybody in the family buys or subscribes to something, Apple first attempts to charge the item to that individual's Apple Account (Apple ID) balance, if any.

2. If a family member does not have enough personal Apple Account balance, any excess will be charged to the Family Organizer's primary payment method (usually a card of some kind). The Organizer's personal balance will not be used for purchases made by other family members. If it cannot bill the primary payment method, the Organizer will need to make another payment method the primary method.


- "Some purchases, including gifts, can't be billed to Apple ID balance and will be charged to the family organizer's payment method." "Some subscriptions might not be charged to Apple ID balance."
