I'm receiving an email that my payment for Apple TV has been declined but my card is not expired. Checking to see if this is a legit email?

This started happening around Dec 28. After it was reported to Apple, it may have now been resolved and this is why your iCloud storage fee went through. Check the date of your email. Others did lose some subscriptions when their cards got declined. Affected users could not buy on the App Store or on Apple TV etc. See if you can test making a purchase. Free Apps still require a valid payment method on file. The emails were legit because the cards were getting flagged, you should still however use caution and not follow any links from emails.

If in doubt you can contact Apple or call 1-800-MY-APPLE

It’s an error that others have reported. In order to fix it you will need another card, follow the instructions in the order listed:

add a new card

remove the card with expiry date error

the default card (that had the expiry date error) can now be added back .

This resolves it, so long as you have an extra card to use because you can’t remove a card if there is no other there.
