How do I merge two iCloud storage plans into one? Basically we want to stop my wife's 200gb plan and move data over to the 2tb storage plan. I don't know at this moment if she has family sharing applied to the 200gb plan... Thanks for any help!
Correct.
This would be the only way to put data from one iCloud account into another. We would only recommend this if both iCloud accounts are yours. We do not recommend sharing an iCloud account with another person as this could cause other problems. You can learn more about that here: Make sure that each family member has a unique Apple ID - Apple Support
Kindest regards.

Hey there, and welcome to Apple Support Communities, dixonaw53!
From our understanding, you want to consolidate two iCloud accounts. We can certainly understand your concern and can help provide some insight.
You can not combine the data so that both phones have access to the data stored in iCloud. You can share an iCloud storage account. To do that, follow the steps found here: Share iCloud+ with your family - Apple Support
Kindest regards!
Thank you, Shannon.
So if I understand, the only way to "consolidate" 2 accounts is to close one of them, then join as a family member on the other. I guess this assumes I have all the files on my Mac that the iCloud account (the one I want to close) has backed up. Any cautions or corrections to this understanding?
Thank you so much for your help.

Thanks again, Shannon
This is something we've been trying to understand, my wife and I. There is just one too many storage plans in the household. My wife has two Apple IDs and I think this is part of the problem. Anyhow, I appreciate your explanations and taking the time.
Best,
iCloud storage plan consolidation
