I have woken up this morning to find £59 has been taken out of my account for an app I did not authorise. I tried the free trial cancelled it within 10 minutes of not liking the app. Have had multiple notifications from my wallet the past few nights trying to withdraw the money for it and I did not go through. Then this morning it’s now been withdrawn. I did not authorise it how do I go about getting my money back?!

Hello,
First confirm you have canceled any subscription automatic renewal (if you simply delete an app this does not cancel subscriptions):
Review the information in this support article by clicking on the link to learn how to cancel a subscription from Apple. ➔ If you want to cancel a subscription from Apple - Apple Support
• "If you signed up for a free or discounted trial subscription and you don't want to renew it, cancel it at least 24 hours before the trial ends."
• An existing subscription will normally continue until the end of its term and may then renew automatically. Stopping automatic renewal is effectively canceling it. "If you don’t see Cancel Subscription, then the subscription is already canceled and won't renew." The "Expires" date means the current subscription will just run until then.
• Read the article to see what to do about subscriptions that do not appear in your list. If you still can't find a subscription, contact Apple Support using the link at the end of the support article.
• Canceling a subscription does not automatically start a refund.
Finally, follow the directions in this support article about how to request a refund for apps or content that you bought from Apple ➔ Request a refund for apps or content that you bought from Apple - Apple Support
