Reset balance to change region.

Hello, I have 0.05 euros on my Luxembourg balance, and I want to change my region. I would like to ask you to reset my balance so that I can switch to another region of use.

Thank you!

Hello,


This is a user to user forum, you are not addressing Apple Support. As such nobody in these forums can access your account or clear your balance.


To clear your balance, buy something more expensive than your balance and pay the rest with a credit card from the current region. If you don't have enough for a single item and cannot add a credit card to your Apple Account, then you need to contact Apple Support directly so they can clear it for you.

Thank you for reaching out. 🤗


There are many parameters that need to be taken before changing regions because currency valuation is not the same across various regions.


If you are changing regions:

  • Spend any balance remaining on your Apple Account. If you’re not sure whether or not you have a balance, check your Apple Account balance.
  • Cancel any subscriptions that block a country or region change and wait until the end of the subscription period. 
  • Wait for any memberships, pre-orders, movie rentals or Season Passes to complete and wait for any pending store credit refunds to process. You can cancel a pre-order.
  • You may be required to enter a valid payment method for your new country or region. See what payment methods you can use.
  • Redownload your apps, music, movies, TV shows and books on any devices that you might use to play or read them in the future. Some types of content might not be available in your new country or region. Learn what types of content and services are available in your new country or region.
  • After you update your Apple Account billing address and payment method, you can upgrade your iCloud+ plan using the pricing in your new country or region.
  • If you need to empty your balance, Contact Apple Support to request a reset of your account balance to zero.

Good luck! 👋🏼😉
