First See if you can identify the charge


  1. To see your purchase history, go to reportaproblem.apple.com.
  2. Sign in with your Apple ID.
  3. A list of purchases will appear. To see family members' purchases, select the Apple ID button and choose a family member.
  4. To see the full receipt, including tax, tap or click the date. Multiple purchases, including subscriptions, may be grouped into one charge.

If the charge is for a subscription that you no longer want, you can cancel the subscription. Find out where else you can view your Purchase History.



If you cannot identify the charge please

I can’t i haven’t bought anything there is so many of them there is 9 individual charges

If there is nothing appearing as a purchase from Apple using the links provided by WheelieNick, then you need to consider if your card has been compromised. Scammers can steal your card numbers from skimmers attached to retail terminals. This occurs frequently at gas stations where they have free access to the terminal overnight to tamper with them. These scammers use descriptions of charges that seem to come from well known companies so you will think they are legitimate. You will need to dispute these kind of charges with your bank where they will cancel your card and issue you a new one. An example of a typical scam is here:
